💙 I see the ocean through pilars Amazing

[@WillBlackArt]

I'm happy that you enjoyed it. 😊

[@WillBlackArt]

I think this might be one of my favorite color palettes. Maybe a little dark but I still love it

[@rob_gay_poz_art]

Hi Will: a fan and an artist here. If I could offer a bit of advice with what you're doing: learn to use the pallet knife in varied ways; what I saw was all very long swept lines. Try using the pallet knife to make a fan shape/curve: keep your hand in one place and draw a curve of any kind by having your hand as the pivot point to sweep that circle. paint and sweep it in place as if to draw/swipe a fan. Go ahead and lay down some heavy amounts of ridges and almost sculptural stiff peaks; if you're worried about things cracking it "crazing"., add a thick acrylic medium that you like and mix so you get so good density and major areas of chunky, smooth, watery and so on. Play, play, play and think about using that pallett knife in every conceivable direction: bent left, bent right, or waves, peaks of thickness or valleys of translucency with acrylic medium and water. All the creative choices you make for a pour, will serve you well for this kind of painting. Its the same rules you know for pouring: composition, colour, design, balance with shapes and washes. Bring that to this kind of pallette painting, and you will free yourself with all of those options. This is all my art education talking now: the more you play, the more varied your knowledge and skills, just line pouring, the more free you will be for experimenting. Cheers. All said with support and a push to "get crazier". 😁👍

..."just like pouring..."

[@WillBlackArt]

Holy cow this was a long and awesome post. Thank you so much for all of the input!! I love your teaching style too. Offering wisdom and leaving it up to the person on whether or not to take it... It's very disarming. Thank you very much. 😊😊😊

[@rob_gay_poz_art]

Yeah didn't start out to teach, but it just went that way. I like your energy and humour, seriously thanks for the compliment.

[@aonalarsen6661]

I love your disclaimer you are freaking hilarious it's nice to see you so free and having fun

[@WillBlackArt]

Aww thank you Aona ♥️ You are only the second person ever to mention that!

[@dawnspengler9357]

THERE'S THE HAPPY PANTS GUY BACK! KEEP ARTING, YOU NEVER WHAT TREASURE YOU WILL CREATE!!

[@WillBlackArt]

Thank you Dawn. You are such an encourager!

[@donnamarsh6827]

Oh and you make me smile “Mr straight and confident guy”

[@WillBlackArt]

Thanks Donna 😂😂

[@ramonashearer7241]

Cool. Love the colors

[@WillBlackArt]

Thank you Ramona you are awesome! ♥️

[@nicolecowallis6133]

I am so glad that I have stumbles across your channel...this was such a fun video to watch...you had so much fun creating....thank you for sharing that this is supposed to be fun....

[@WillBlackArt]

Aww thank you Nicole 😁 I'm happy that you found me too!

[@donnamarsh6827]

I am so glad you tried this because I am also feeling my way through....and not very successfully

[@WillBlackArt]

Oh awesome! It's cool to hear how many of us are evolving into other types of art.

[@juleejames9977]

Good luck on the house build - hope your getting a studio in the new house. I really like this style of painting - also gets unexpected results like pouring.

[@WillBlackArt]

Thanks Julie I can't wait till it's done. Yes I will have an art space. I'm so excited! Do you paint in this style too?

[@juleejames9977]

Will Black Yes - but in oils. I don’t have a safe drying space right now (grandsons everywhere) so I’m sticking to fast drying acrylics.

[@trish1anne]

Watching you paint is like watching a suspense movie (good thing). I could see a village in the corner and was thing "Please, Will, don't swipe through that"...and you didn't. Whew! I know things are upside down for me. Love your experiments.

[@WillBlackArt]

Haha! I feel like I'm living in a slasher film when I try this painting style 😂😂

[@markanthony118]

Hey Will, I find your videos very relaxing. :-)

[@WillBlackArt]

Thank you sir! :D I have a lot of fun creating them

[@barbarasmith3295]

When you started doing the white upward shapes, they started to look like tree trunks. I was itching for you to do some branches! Lol

[@WillBlackArt]

Oh that would be pretty darn cool! Should have done trees.

[@cristinafloris8725]

Hi😂 on a tres bien compris que tu ne savais pas ou tu aller. On dirais : un enfant a qui on donne de la peinture, un carton, et un couteau et on lui di vas et amusetoi 🤪 puis il passe un bon moment a faire joujou et voila le resultat:👏👏👏 tu as quand meme reusi a nous surprendre avec le resultat ( inatendu😄) bravo

[@WillBlackArt]

Merci je pense: D Google traduit seulement une partie traduite de votre commentaire. Je ne suis pas encore très doué en peinture au couteau, mais je suis heureux de ne pas être terrible. HAHA

[@howlingwind1937]

At the point where you reapplied the black and white, you could have covered the painting with cling wrap and tapped it down then twisted it and left it to dry and then pull the cling wrap off, something quite interesting may have happened. Cheers!

[@howlingwind1937]

Looking at the painting vertically I saw something quite wonderful. Cheers!

[@WillBlackArt]

That would be really cool to try sometime. Thank you for the tip!

[@howlingwind1937]

Will Black thank you for a reply, I hope you manage to film it for KZbin it'd be fun see what you get to happen. Cheers!

[@BambiOlsonLexi]

Hi Will, Get as wild as you want :)

[@WillBlackArt]

I don't know baby that could be pretty wild! I don't think the world is ready. 😂😂

[@BambiOlsonLexi]

The world is never ready for greatness...............LOL

[@WillBlackArt]

[@WillBlackArt]

Karin how are you!? Oh man so much lately! We moved to a temp place while we have a house built, having a house built, got a new job, and trying to keep my sanity 😂😂 How about you?

[@CraftyMum]

Another video, boy are we lucky! Aidan just finished a rainbow painting using a pop bottle bottom for her next video.

[@WillBlackArt]

I'm still planning on making a cute little shout out video for Aidan. My wife and boys are taking a vacation without me for 3 weeks. I'll probably do it then

[@CraftyMum]

Will Black that will make her day!

[@jeannebavers4428]

Will, some people have ugly hearts and no manners.

[@WillBlackArt]

Too true. At least this person was funny. If they're going to be rude at least they can have the good grace to be funny

[@josephstanley200]

[@josephstanley200]

[@gaylaroof612]

o man, when i scream, STOP!, u should really stop!!!! 😂! i liked it until u put on all that blue...then when u swiped the 1st white vertical stripes, they were beautiful, but u...REALLY overswiped that sucker!!!! 😂😂. i loved it!!!!! i did a pour last nite, that turned out stupid!! and i thought...i dont kno what im doing, but i sure am having fun 😊!! doing a black & white only, or w/a SMIDGE of color, would be pretty. whats weird, is, im kinda likin' what ur doing...so keep on doin' it...even tho u dont kno what ur doin'...we're a pretty elite group u kno (those of us who dont kno what we're doin'!!) 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@WillBlackArt]

Yeah my wife says I don't listen so good either. 😂😂

[@gaylaroof612]

Will Black. its called...selective hearing!!!! 😄😄😄😄

[@ellenvd5543]

Thanks for sharing Will, I admire that you try out different styles. If you have time, watch this movie about Jonas Gerard...he is good! kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2Sak2ulo7ONgJY

[@ellenvd5543]

Maybe it gives you some more (or other) inspiration! I love this style of painting!

[@WillBlackArt]

the guy is awesome! The art is beautiful and I like how he does a little jig here and there throughout the painting process 😂😂
