Thank for sharing dear, this content really helped me 😊🥰

Thanks. Helpful. As I'm still honing my skills, I haven't painted on many surfaces - mainly thick drawing paper, those flat canvas-textured boards, & clay pottery. I'd like to try wooden nesting dolls at some point. My favorite (painting) medium is Acrilycs & I'd love to see tutorials on color blending, stroke techniques, how to work from light to dark & vice versa. Watercolors, though beautiful, are the most difficult to me, but I'd still love to see tutorials on those as well to help improve my skills. I gave up on oils in my 20s in college cuz they're just WAY too messy & I hate the time-consuming clean-up. Thanks for all your videos :)

Hey thank you souch for considering my request. One experience I want to share. I used oil.panel for oil painting mostly outdoor for a whole year. I.loved working on the. Every mark looked lovely. But the point is when you cone to canvas its whole new chemistry. Like a new surface, where you need to work in layers and faT over lean. And painting might not turned around as ooth as on wood. So if you want to work a finished piece, must try working on canvas, know their chemistry, dry time and all. Canvas ate challenge a bit

Thank you so so much for listing out the pros and cons listed for each on the screen. I couldn't have the audio up with i watched your video, but being able to reach the pros and cons was very helpful. I think i'll be getting the canvas paper and then the boards. I"m currently learning acrylic painting. :) Thanks for this video.

I really love wood panels already mounted and canvas panels. One downside of panels is that many of them are not considered archival due to the cardboard backing. But i like the space saving feature. I still need to try mdf after quarantine. I would really love to paint flowers, succulents, etc in oils. And i want to learn layering. Ill be using water mixable oils as i dont have a good ventilated space.

Dents can be removed by wetting the backside of the cavas then hitting it with a hair dryer set on medium until dry. This will shrink the canvas . Wet only the dent area.
