Oh, one thing: Did you let any of the layers dry or almost dry before adding the next?

Did you prepared canvas somehow? White paint or something? Or just put modeling paste on canvas?

@@monymiller4005 she let the white paint dry. For the other parts i dont know

The base is the oil paint?

@@monymiller4005 she is using oil, so no. She painted canvas with acrylic after using modelling paste. I use tile adhesive in a one gallon bucket for texture, it works well and is so cheap, instead of expensive modeling paste . Have fun painting and warm greetings from Canada!!

Exactly! Either explain or just remove "how to" from the title, geez.

true, this falls more into a demo video category

Yes!!

Yep

True

Oh my Netherlands. Never been there how's weather girl

Absolutely beautiful, I'm going to paint my round table top using this method, thank you!

Exact !!

I was thinking the same thing, really wish I knew the how part lol

hamsablue Canvas, acrylic modelling paste (impasto) roughly daubed onto canvas with painting knife or you can use lolly stick, an old credit card or similar, cut to smaller size if wanted. Allow to dry fully (overnight). Oil paint best for this technique as it can be ‘rubbed in’, a bit like shoe polishing. Acrylic will be harder to move around since it dries fast. Using a piece of rag, take small dabs of paint and apply as she demonstrates in random areas, building up as you go. It brings out the relief of the texture. Oil paint takes up to a week or so to dry.

@@tracik1277 Thank you, but an old creditcard or stick wouldn't give the same result as a small palett knife. You Will not get the random structure but more straight lines/figures. Try it yourself😃

Somia Essaid True, but I wrote that so it’s an idea for an alternative if you don’t have a palette knife. I use a larger piece of shaped plastic if I want to texturise an area.

Hi, can you please show me you painting . Please

Kitten Mimi Ikr. It’s so annoying

I take it you’re not a visual learner

Yes I just tried this and couldn't not figure out how to do her technique, and I paint a lot

It’s basically creating an uneven random surface using filler of some sort. Let it dry and you then use a dry brush approach. The shapes of the filler will create a sculptural style and stops for the dry paint. You then dab on and use the cloth to mix gradations of colour. Legitimately anyone can do it. But the difference of this and a real expressionist painting is night and day. You get what you pay for. You also can’t take shortcuts to being an artist and having the touch. This is a craft project, it is not art. I don’t say this in a way of malice, it is simply a fact. However it may still be a doorway into real art for many so who am I to denigrate it.

That’s what I’d like to know .. wish she gave better info on what she was using.

My question too!

Yes

i also want to know if she's using cloth
