[@cristinacortes7182]

Hola , gracias , muy buena clase , que importante es el pincel , al comienzo de este arte ,uno cree que cualquier píncel sirve , no es asi , excelente demostración, un saludo desde chile ,adiós ,macris

[@ashphoenix5447]

Hello Angela. Thank you for this tutorial. I watched it when it 1st came out but I hadn't started painting then. Now I've painted my 1st few painting & discovered I really need some practice with my brushes. My dexterity and control is not where I'd like it nor can I get the type of thin lines out of my brushes like I'd like so practice, practice, practice. I really have liked this video and I'll be using your printable as well. Any other ways I can practice I'd love to know so if there's another edition of this type rolling around in your head I'd be receptive to it!

[@thankfulart]

+Ashs Vision I am so glad to get this feedback. Great to know this is being used. When doing lines be sure to stabilize your arm and wrist, use a high flow paint (thinned with water), and a good brush twisted to a point. Always lead with your hand. Drag behind instead of pushing. Good luck with your practicing! I will keep this in mind for some more videos. Thank you!

[@sammykrummelmonsterbaumann1852]

obrigada, once I will get it :-)

[@janmay6455]

The acrylic looks quite loose... do you add a medium? Thankyou and love your work

[@AmyScottGrantnow]

Hi hun, just amazing what sizes brushes are you use in this video❤

[@thankfulart]

I think they are listed in the video description.

[@kasiadelamadriz1738]

what brand of brush are you using, im not getting the same look as you, is it because im brand new or im I using cheap brushes?

[@atulurvialartandcraft1104]

Hello mam l love your painting please tell me ki aap koan se company ka brush oar kis size ka kis naam ka oar koan ,koan sa brush use kar rahi hai you now why l am asking this all thing becouse l love your painting and l also trye to make this and can l use any paint yes or not tell me the paints name also THANK YOU

[@igabi7]

What size have those brushes? Thanks

[@kathydavid2897]

Thanks for these great tips Angela!! What brand where those brushes?

[@thankfulart]

+Kathy David They are Robert Simmons Sapphire.

[@barbikangaroo8944]

Hi Angela, I just started painting a month ago, so my question will probably sound silly but... In this video are you practicing with your book on a table top or on the easel?

[@thankfulart]

Anything under 16" or so I just hold it in my hand or use a table. I usually move the painting around a lot to adjust the angle to make it easier. Larger canvases you can use a tabletop easel. Anything over about 20-24" you will want a standing easel. :)

[@barbikangaroo8944]

@@thankfulart thank you so much for not only the answer but for the speedy response! 😊 I had thought because this video was an older one it would of taken a month, if at all. I really love your paintings. 🤗

[@susanfarnham4286]

Where can I find the brush stroke printable

[@thankfulart]

It is on Pinterest in my traceables board (link in description) or in my Thankful Art group files on Facebook.

[@1straycat99]

LIKE IT VERY IMPORTANT BEST ALWAYS AM SUBBED

[@AngelOttaway]

im having trouble finding simply Simmons brushes that cinnamon uses are your brushes as good as those. cant find the extra firm filament bright # 2,4,6,8,10,12 extra firm filbert #10 ,6 . fan with stiff brush. i have very little money and need to make sure i buy the correct supplies for her art quest and videos and your videos

[@thankfulart]

+Angel Ottaway I think Michael's sells them. I like the Robert Simmons Titanium too. The stiff brushes won't work as well for detailed brush strokes though. The white Taklon brushes from masters touch (Hobby Lobby) or the Princeton Select are a good alternative and inexpensive.

[@ilinka8764]

please tell me what kind of paper you are painting on..in this tutorial

Thankss !!

[@adameve2789]

if you use these brushes on canvas surface it will be different , because canvas is more difficult and not smooth as like as this art book surface .Tank u
