[@vozamaraktv-art5595]

One of those rare instructional/tutorial videos, where you feel with utmost conviction that, out of the 7:23 minutes, not a single second was wasted or unnecessary. ❤️

[@marthajaimes9891]

I thought that, too

[@user-hu6bm9bn4c]

no hate, but 45 seconds of palette knife is maybe just a bit unnecessary :) (i means the impasto)

[@vozamaraktv-art5595]

@@user-hu6bm9bn4c No worries. But it could be very useful for those who paint in a more textured way. I myself like experimenting with palette knife and impasto in general. 🙂

[@user-hu6bm9bn4c]

@@vozamaraktv-art5595 I didn't say I didn't like impasto? paint knife, I just said that 45 seconds is maybe just a bit too long because I think many people already get it after 15 seconds...

As soon as I clicked on the video, there was immediate attention-grabbing action. I clicked subscribe immediately. And she actually teaches you how to do it instead of just showing off her skills and not really showing anything at all like other channels. This channel made me instantly feel like I can accomplish the impossible. What an incredible influencer.

[@kellynn739]

Absolutely. I was hooked when I clicked this video. No random introduction, no "please subscribe," no sponsors. Just went right into what I, a complete beginner, came here for.

When using the tape method you can also paint over the edges of the tape with some white paint first, let that dry and after that use your colors:) the white will fill in the gaps between the paper and the tape so there’s no room for colors to leak in:)

[@Osyrous]

Thank you! This is genius. What would you suggest if you already have a layer of color that you now want to tape over and add another layer over for a specific patter?

[@Fravii]

@@Osyrous You’re welcome ☺️ In this case I’d go over the edges with the color you first used and that’s now underneath the tape☺️ also please make sure that your tape is not too sticky. Otherwise it could rip off the first layer.

[@jessemolina4233]

Which tape do you recommend?

[@Fravii]

@@jessemolina4233 I like to use the Tesa masking professional sensitive tape (the pink one) it’s not as sticky as others which means it’s not as likely to rip the paper when peeling it off. In case it seems to stick to the paper (for example if you left it on for a very long time), you can try and use a hairdryer to warm up the tape and you should be able to peel it off easier :) I hope that helped:)

[@Allie-ck2lj]

So, you are a teacher in real life. NO WONDER you explain so well. I guess you wouldn't want to give up your day job, but I want you to know that what you share on tube is so very appreciated.

[@raphaela.entierro3806]

I loved how the artist carefully described how to use acrylic techniques. It is quite useful and to the point! I love how brilliant the acrylic colors are and how the texture emerges after drying. Acrylic paint is a versatile media that is also one of the least damaging.

[@Peridotdot1]

I really valued this, but I wish I had an overview shoot of the entire page at the end so I could save the image and keep it as a reference

[@tibr835]

I didn’t plan on paying attention but this video was so informative. Thank you.

[@JenniferFunnellArt]

Hello everyone! I have really valued all of the feedback, suggestions and comments! I initially made this video for my high school students, who also received additional instruction from me in the classroom setting. This video was made as a supplement to that instruction and therefore isn't as inclusive as it could be. I have more knowledge to add! Because of the growing interest I am in the process of making another video on these same techniques, but more in depth and with more examples. Thanks again for your support and be on the lookout for my new video. As always, I love answering questions and hearing feedback.

Please removed or improve your solution of the Paint with water and add that you can t dilute IT with water for more then 30% as IT Will break the binder and IT Will cause the Paint to damage your painting directory or in short time ( for more indepth I would need to look up the technicall terms and explanation but I know IT is true for all normal acrulic paints even the expensive brands and every known brand. They made mediums to add to Paint to use IT very tuin or very Thick etc. And IT s not sometiñg that's been changed and this a teaching that's faulty, nope, IT still is that way. Thaught to ask you to change your opinion on this as you tracht beginners and so others might Read my warning for this problem.)

[@lindanafey7158]

Thank you for reminding me of all the things I'd learned and forgotten in art school in my teens. VERY helpful and clear demonstrations of technique and tools. Thanks again!

[@robinsoncomighod5672]

I like about how the artist explained thoroughly on using techniques in acrylic. It is super helpful and straight to point!. I adore how vibrant the acrylic colors are and how it develops texture after drying. Acrylic paint is one of the most versatile mediums, and one of the least toxic.

[@pugs4lfe878]

One of my favorite abstract techniques (it would go along with stamping) I love to do is take some bubble wrap and brush on a thick layer of paint and stamp it on and it looks super cool! And I love scratching off paint with a plastic fork or plastic knife (so I don’t ruin our actual knives) and you get even lines ☺️
