Thank you for being so real and sharing your “I should have stopped” momentz😅 doing a sketch 1st is extremely helpful thx❤️

[@lindawright4824]

this was so informative and helpful....the idea of making a bunch of mistakes on something small then moving onto a bigger piece really makes sense...thanks so much!

Thank you, Andrea. Boy, do I know what it's like to overwork. Great video and great final work in the show.

Hi there! Thanks and yep overworking is an annoyingly common thing !

[@sabinapinzan]

Thank you for sharing that Andrea. I can totally relate as I constantly struggle with myself to keep things simple. Really love your final painting. It is beautiful.

[@charlottehogberg9855]

I’m taking the idea of blind drawing to make a start for my painting!

[@artistspace]

It’s a great way to start especially if you want an abstract to seem like an object place interior or whatever without it being explicit

[@janetjoslin6463]

i love your longer videos with alot of info. I always stay in touch with you!

[@artistspace]

Great video. Boy, can I relate! Thanks so much for sharing. I see you used acrylic paint. What medium are you using? Thanks!

[@artistspace]

Any fluid acrylic medium will work

[@suzleslie1]

Is this acrylic or oil? Id guess acrylic

[@artistspace]

Acrylic yes

[@rserra60]

As one who sometimes overwork, this is one hot mess. I'm waiting for the spray bottle to make its appearance.

[@littlewillowlinda]

How so?

Wow, it looks like a girl walking from behind with shorts on with one side red & one side gray.
