Amazing work! Can't wait to try something like this.. do you apply every colour to the canvas with a brush first and then spray it with water to spread it thinner, and then swipe with the wedge? You mentioned in other video comments the wedge is always dry, do you ever apply paint to the canvas with the wedge or just brush/spray paint? Sooo many questions but if I watch close enough I'm kinda starting to understand it all.. also how wet do you want each layer of paint to be? Wouldn't the canvas soak it up before you can spread it with the wedge? I'm just gonna try it and see what happens... :D

Hi. Courtney. The video has already started by the time we put it on nd can u showdtep by step the colors nd technique with the catalyst. It’s too fast to catch your lovely work .. 💕do you use gesso or primer on the canvas before starting

[@yvonnesanders6404]

Prachtig!

[@lindajakub624]

Very nice painting. Does it matter how long you let paint dry begot adding new paint, color, etc? I tried a couple. Not terribly successful.

C'est un galet en silicone de marque "catalyst" certaines cornes en silicone pour cuisine peuvent aussi être utilisé ou bien voir à spatules souples que vous trouverez chez "beaux arts" par exemple.

[@jaysonbelmoro6429]

[@jaysonbelmoro6429]

[@derrickschmidt7278]

Great work! Do you use Instagram?

[@CourtSeniorART]

Derrick Schmidt I do! @courtseniorart

[@poudredeperlimpinpin9216]

Vos peintures sont aériennes, légères, telles des nuages colorés. L'effet est superbe. Je lis vos commentaires et je ne comprends pas ce que vous avez voulu dire avec: la peinture acrylique d'usibg et le paibt de jet? si vous pouvez me répondre, ce serait parfait, cordialement.

[@alicey8741]

What I would suggest considering: 1). Variation in the use of objects to add paint to surface. I guess the large scraper is used to cover the support with a color quicker 2). Limit mixing of paint on the surface of the support 3). Develop a composition not based on splotches on the canvas 4) Study the mixing of colors more 5). If the idea of the subconscious is the premise then more subconscious work needs to be done to have any progress

[@FunJRed]

Alice Y - This is a BEAUTIFUL painting.... created by a PROFESSIONAL Artist! If all artists painted in the same way following "rules", we would miss out on a tremendous opportunity to view truly beautiful work! We shouldn't discourage an Artist who is willing to share. As a "viewer", I LOVE every piece Court Senior ART shares on You Tube and everything I have seen on her website!

I’d like the video was more slow. I can’t follow it.
