I'm 73 now and it is 7:15 AM, You have warmed up my day with your helpful guidance. Don.

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you enjoyed it Don.

[@scorpiovanna]

I always wanted to be a painter or artist but my family wants me to be a doctor. It's very stressful studying to get into college and I don't have time to paint, but just watch your video made me relax and feel calm, you teach very well. I hope to paint at least 1/100 of what you paint when I graduate and have time for a hobby. Congratulations, you're a great artist (and very handsome).

[@bambinaforever1402]

Did u manage to become a doctor by now?

[@Unhumanosobrepensando]

always chase your dreams not everybody else's. its your life and you choose how you want to live it!

[@PikeTJ]

I did this painting twice, the first time just like the video, and the second time I substituted green for the back drop and a red apple instead of yellow. Your knowledge and excellent videos are greatly appreciated. Thanks Will.

[@willkempartschool]

Thomas Pike Great to hear it Thomas, and nice that you've been adapting the techniques to your own works, good one. Will

[@andreww5574]

I'm not even a painter. This is just relaxing to watch

[@willkempartschool]

Pleased you've been finding it relaxing Andrew. Cheers, Will

[@lindaleeharper5332]

This is without a doubt a wonderful tutorial for a beginner. I love that you detail the brushes when and where you change them. The camerawork is excellent. We can see exactly what you're doing, when you turn brushes, how you apply them. Thanks from a very very beginning painter.

[@willkempartschool]

Linda Lee Harper Thanks Linda, so pleased you found it helpful for your progress as a painter! Cheers, Will

[@theTwilightSystem]

As someone who has never been any good at any form of visual art, it amazes me to watch people pain or draw. You guys can think of something, picture it in your head, then MAKE IT! It's absolutely mind-blowing. I hope that I'll be able to do something like this some day. I'm an author and want to design the covers to my books, so I'm following several series like this to learn different techniques for getting the idea for my covers into a physical form.

[@sandarahcatmom9897]

Isn't it great that these videos don't just disappear in time! I've been taking painting classes for several years at a local senior center and for the life of me, my shadows look like big black balls and I couldn't understand why the table should be lighter regardless of the explanations from my teacher. This was so clear and easy to figure out the whys and wherefores of what you were doing - by watching you do it. I loved watching the color choices and blending process as well. Very instructive. Thank you. This was very helpful. I'll keep watching.

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you enjoyed it Sandarah.

[@LebannersHook]

"grab a brew and grab some biscuits" Just the instructor I've been looking for!

[@jlofurno59]

I've sketched for most of my life but just recently started painting with acrylics. Your tutorials are the best I've found. The toned ground technique is especially key to getting good results. So far, I've painted the Apple, the pitcher and the cherry and they turned out pretty well. I'm learning how to mix colors and create form. It's a lot of fun!

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you've been finding the lesson helpful Janet. Cheers, Will

[@victoriagadd6831]

Such an ‘ordinary’ item: “the humble apple” (through the eye of an artist - nothing ordinary at all) and you have made it special - and that’s a gift. Great tutorial, Will. Thanks. So beautiful ... I love it.

[@willkempartschool]

You're very kind Victoria, pleased you enjoyed it. Will

[@mikecunningham4077]

Absolutely amazing process. I've been trying to teach myself by trial and error for a couple of decades. Should have tuned in a long time ago! What a great service to make this available to the public. BIG Thanks!

My pleasure Mike, glad you've been finding the lessons helpful. Cheers, Will

[@QueenXenon]

I was worried that people would be afraid to do a vid like this for fear of boring the audience but this is exactly what i wanted to see thank you

[@mermaidtingzzz]

Yes! Less is always more when it comes to talking in videos lol. There’s so much noise in this world it’s nice to find something like this to relax to while still engaging with something creative!

[@jays7896]

What a great, educational video. I like that you're really passionate about this and it shows. Thanks so much for posting this online!

[@willkempartschool]

+Jay S Pleased you enjoyed it Jay. Cheers, Will

You are a truly amazing instructor. Just from this short video I learned so much about layering. I'm sold!

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you found it helpful. Cheers, Will

[@socalsal627]

Thanks for explaining the color choices throughout the process. I've only been a graphite and charcoal artist, but was craving to work in color. It is a whole new world for sure, but I am loving it despite being confused most of the time! These tutorials are really helpful!

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you've been finding them helpful

[@jasminejohnson193]

Every time you say "hello class" or " grab a couple of biscuits" I smile so much. You have such a calming and positive way about you. :)

[@chucknorrissaurus4398]

Hi Will! Thank you so much for the comprehensive tutorial! I'm just getting back into painting and used this to practice with my god daughter. We had so much fun. Wish I could send you a picture or our process. What makes your video so great is I could see how you mixed paint, applied it, brush technique. All of that detail goes a really long way! Gonna need to find a way to support you after I type this because this video was immensely helpful. Cheers!

[@willkempartschool]

You're very welcome Conrad, so pleased it was helpful. Will

[@annebouvier13]

Thank you for making this. I haven’t painted in 15 years and was nervous to pick up a brush. This was the perfect way. Really appreciate the video and for helping me get back to painting. I’ll be continuing to watch your videos! Thanks will!!!

[@willkempartschool]

Good one Anne, glad you enjoyed it

[@annebouvier13]

@@willkempartschool Thanks Will!

[@friedricengravy6646]

Mr. Kemp, this was the first painting video I fully viewed (multiple times lol) when I first felt a draw (no pun intended) to creating art/images with acrylic paint. I had been drawing my whole life, but had no experience with any brush applied medium. 10+ years later, I am still painting. Im not famous (lol obviously lol), Im not wealthy, I dont even sell paintings, I only create for personal satisfaction. My point is simple, ur initial guidance fueled that spark & sent me down a path that gave me so much more than material wealth or recognition, u gave me joy. Thank u & wishing u all the best!!!

[@willkempartschool]

That’s so brilliant to hear, glad the lesson was helpful in bringing your drawing skills to paint.

[@DavidJones-wb8hn]

I've only recently started painting again after a (really) long hiatus & I'm learning more from your videos that 4 years at Uni. Thank you Will, these are great. I have them on "autoplay" in the background as well as watching them directly. Lovely stuff.

[@willkempartschool]

Pleased you're finding them helpful David. Cheers, Will

[@tahirhashmi2533]

Being self taught can be a pain at times but videos like this definitely help. Glad I already knew to keep a brew on hand, though. Excellent vid!

Pleased you enjoyed it Steve, brew at the ready! Will

[@kolaas2006]

Its so great to see Will paint, I remember him walking into my gallery as a kid. He seemed eager to learn and I taught him everything I knew, and just look where he is today! ;):P;):P

[@Horace01]

skipping straight to digital painting has robbed me of the ability to mix colors. and the ability to paint really. help i've been robbed!

[@leehauser8887]

I so enjoyed this video. I copied what you were doing and am just thrilled with how my apple and shading turned out. It's nowhere near as professional as yours, but much better than I could have possibly done w/o this video. And now to do it again as to get more practice and confidence. Thanks!!

[@anna.augustinova]

I love watching you paint and speak during it..you've got such a pleasant voice :)

here is how to speed up your learning of light. Just watch. Just observe every light curve. Every line, every shade. Just sit and watch and study and paint when you feel you understand. This is one of our great gifts of the mind; To see before hand. And it works for almost everyone almost all the time :)

[@willkempartschool]

That's great to hear Victoria.

[@justluci8578]

Wow! I watched this video a couple of years ago when I first started getting interested in painting and I was kinda lost and couldn't follow it - ended up realizing I needed to brush up on my drawing skills anyway and did that for a couple years... I ended up finding your website kinda by accident last week and ordered your Absolute Beginners Acrylic course - I did one video from it and ended up ordering nearly all your other courses right afterward - it was perfect! Tonight, I finished the last video in the Beginners course and I'm very happy with what I learned. I didn't know how to handle my paints or keep them from drying out and I have quit every other painting tutorial I've tried to follow out of frustration - especially since the ones I tried at first had me trying to paint very specific objects like rocks or trees by watching the instructor paint a rock or a tree with no photo reference for myself. Your courses are really well organized and it's the perfect combination of art theory and ease of use. I love being able to paint along and look at the same photo you have to work from. I'm very please so far and I can't wait to follow along with this video now after all these years now that I'm much more comfortable handling the paint. Thanks WIll!

[@willkempartschool]

Hey Luci, happy new year! so nice to hear from you and thanks for your lovely comment. So pleased that you enjoyed the course and found the lessons easy to follow and work along from. Cheers, Will

[@stephanieeckert1488]

[@ZimVader-0017]

Thank you for this, I had missed my art class because I was feeling sick so I didn't know how to use my acrylics yet. This helped me with the background coloring they were doing that day :D

[@greetingsfromchilliwack5702]

I love it. Very simple yet precise. Good video close ups. How do you keep the heavy body paints from drying before you're finished blending on the palette and on the canvas?? I'm a real newbie!

[@tkataby73]

I'm stuck because I've been trying to take up oil painting for the past months but finding it quite challenging. This video made me want to go back to acrylics and keep the oils for another time! Thank you!

[@willkempartschool]

I'd just try them both, each medium can help you learn skills you can us ein al your paintings so no experiments are wasted time. Keep going.

[@sakartvela1]

Very nice painting! I like your comprehensiveness in explanations, so thank you very much for uploading all your videos and helping others to learn! Keep it up!

[@choang263]

What a lot of hard work, you must be very busy painting that picture and you must be proud of yourself

[@1operamom]

I am just learning to use acrylic, coming from an oil painting background. I did not realize you could use such a washy consistency of the paint. I was under the impression it made for a weak surface or weakened the paint surface. Thought you had to use glazes and such. I am learning so much watching your videos. Thank you.

[@willkempartschool]

As long as you're working on an absorbent surface the paint will adhere well, this is from Sarah Sands, Technical Services Supervisor from Golden Paints: "The cautions against thinning acrylics beyond 30% (or some similar figure) is common to run across and is something we often find ourselves having to correct, at least in regards to our own paints. We cannot, of course, comment about other manufacturers’ products, where performance can differ. So the following is really only about our brand and is not a blanket statement.The first thing to note is that our Fluids and Heavy Body acrylics can easily be thinned up to one part paint to one part water, or a 1:1 ratio, and maintain excellent adhesion onto absorbent surfaces. In fact, even when testing this on a non-absorbent material like Plexiglas, the paints still formed good films with no adhesion failures after being allowed to fully cure. To add even a little more comfort beyond that, we can share that the adhesion onto Plexiglas remained solid even when thinning with one part paint to two parts water, or a 1:2 ratio. Which would feel like a fairly fluid wash for most people.' You can read more about the absorbency of your paint surface here: willkempartschool.com/getting-started-how-to-choose-what-to-paint-on/ Hope this helps, Will

[@1operamom]

Thanks for clarifying that for me.

[@4everfab359]

[@marciagklarosk5161]

Hi Will. You're really a great artist and I'd like to thank you for all your videos and your time to teach us! I have a doubt about on how to choose the ground color just by looking at the model. I mean: based on what , can we choose the ground color? Thanks again.

[@willkempartschool]

Márcia GKlarosk Hi Marcia, It’s often due to the mood you’re trying to create or choosing a colour that brings all the tones together. Just like choosing a wall colour at home, the paint colours will provide the brighter accents but you need a more muted harmonious tone underneath to bring them all together. Cheers, Will

[@prabhapanth6762]

Thank you for a great lesson. I tried following your tutorial, with so many thick layers of paint it felt more like oil painting not acrylics, but without the mess, the smells , and the long time needed for drying ! Thanks a lot.

[@willkempartschool]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@michelinechevrier2130]

Thanks, Will. I did invest in better colors and I like the results for the ground. I did do a large canvas (30x60) and found I had a hard time not getting striations(?) on the canvas. I do like the effect but how do I get it smooth(er)? Do you spray your canvas with water before? Or if you do use a mixing medium, which one would be best for the the ground, especially when you're working with a larger canvas. thanks for your help. I find your videos sooo helpful. Your color mixing lessons have already saved me hours and hours of frustration!

[@willkempartschool]

Micheline Chevrier You can add a 'acrylic flow release' into your paints that will release the surface tension an give the acrylic more of a staining effect onto the canvas. Cheers, Will

[@PaintsbyEric]

Grand merci pour cette vidéo et test de la marque Cobra. Je peins depuis 2 ans essentiellement à l'Acrylique . votre vidéo aide à franchir le pas vers l'huile. TOP

[@justond5413]

Will, I wonder if you can give some particulars about this project. did you gesso the canvas first ? How many times? do you sand the canvas in-between gesso applications? The paint look quite runny and thin, is that do to water or some medium , which medium ? I know this is an older project, but I hope you still can see the questions and have time to respond, very grateful Will

[@willkempartschool]

The canvas was a pre-primed gesso canvas. I then applied a coloured ground (there is an article and video on my website about applying a coloured ground) The acrylics are diluted with water for the whole painting, no mediums used. Cheers

[@doctornovember1194]

Thanks for the tips! Also, could you tell me what the background music is...very peaceful :)

[@moosey62]

Hey Will Thanks for telling which brush you're using. I use all sorts of everything but not brushes. I really want to use them, but don't want to spend any money.. Thanks and great vid Matt

[@candyleong9141]

What if i work with this technique on drawing paper? Will it tear?

[@MrYayo-fn2ot]

Hi Will. Recently discovered you and bought one of your online courses and it was fantastic! I have a question for you in this video. At minutes 20:10 you seemed to be blending the transition edges between all the mid-tones so effortlessly. How did you do that? Did you just basically blend the edges on the canvas with your brush or did you mix the colours separately on your palette then apply it on those transition edges? Btw, thanks for another brilliant tutorial!

[@willkempartschool]

So pleased you found the course helpful Mohamad, just mixing them with the brush, i'll often have a tiny amount of paint on the brush, but its very close to a dry brush.

[@Seongonkimchi]
