Professional ARTIST 49 yrs I'VE USE THIS TECHNIQUE MANY TIMES ADDING PAINT AND DRYWALL TO A CANVAS... BUT !!! YOU MUST FIRST ADD A STRONG LQ GLUE TO YOUR DRYWALL AND PAINT mix well... and work fast getting it on the canvas "IF YOU DO NOT" ... EVENTUALLY THE DRYWALL WILL DRY UP AND FALL OFF THE CANVAS

I’ve been binging these plaster art videos and you’re the first person I’ve seen mix paint with the plaster. I’m surprised more people have thought of this rather than painting over it.

Amazing !!! You’re so free flowing and organic. I love the crackle effect. Art is so fluid. It looks one way one day, and different the next. I’ve got pieces in my home that keep changing all the time, and they seem to get better each day. Colours underneath come to the surface and mix with all the layers. Thanks so much Whitney 🔆🪔🧚🏽‍♀️

@sare2001 3 жыл бұрын

Love these! They’re exactly the type of art AND colours I’ve been working on lately, including painting over canvases I found when neighbours moved and threw them out (twinsies! 😉). I would guess the cracking is bc canvas is a flexible surface and joint compound is designed for rigid surfaces (which is why it didn’t look like it cracked on the stage piece - an excellent find, btw!), so if you decide next time you don’t want the cracking, try mixing the dry powder (or marble dust, calcium carbonate, or even baby powder) with PVA glue, which helps give it a little flex. Keep up the great work!

@WhitneyBaldwin 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Twin!!! 👯‍♀️ Mixing a powder into glue is such a brilliant idea! I think you’re right, the only cracking was on the canvases. Thank you so much for the lovely comment and amazing insight. DM me on Instagram... I would love to see what you’re working on 💛

I realise this video is from a while ago but would love your advice! I have been wanting to make a piece of wall art for our place living room. Absolutely love the third piece in this video. Can I ask, as you blend and play with these pieces did you do a bit, let dry, do a bit more, dry etc OR did you do the majority while it was wet? Eg: was the paint wet when you applied the dry wall plaster? Was the plaster dry when you brushed colour over the top? If this makes sense 😅 I feel so inspired now!

@kgtennisfan 3 жыл бұрын

I have watched this video at least 10 times! I have just discovered painting on canvas and I am totally addicted! Your video is by far the best I have seen with both explaining AND demonstrating a basic way to do this (although it looks super high end and not basic). :) I have one question, did you keep wetting your brush or the canvas during the first round of adding the drywall? Especially when using the brush, it looks like it goes on so easy compared to what I am doing. Hope all is well! Thanks for sharing your talent!

@WhitneyBaldwin 3 жыл бұрын

Omg, hi!!! Thank you so much for this amazing comment. I’m sooooo happy you have discovered painting on canvas. I put the drywall compound on with the spatula then feathered it out with a wet brush. You can always add more water to your drywall compound if it’s seeming dry or too hard to work with. There is no right or wrong way to do this. If it seems like you need more water, add more water. If it’s too wet - let it sit for a bit. You got this 💖
