Michelle, this is stunning. The fact you take the time to share with us is so nice knowing how busy you must be with your new place.

This painting does make me want to pull out my acrylic paints again. I started in acrylic but have been playing in watercolor for the past few years. Might be time to break out the easel!! ❤

Love the painting. I'm amazed at all the layers you add. It's something I struggle with myself when painting with acrylics. I think I stop too soon. Thanks for the video. Lovely pumpkins! ❤❤❤

[@thecreativecove6898]

Thank you so much. A little tip that helps me know if I am finished is I take a black and white photo of the painting and have a look at the contrast. That way I can see if I want to add more shadow or highlights. Hope that helps 😊

This video makes me want to run down to the city and find every Thrift store I can find.....LOL. I don't know how you manage to find such treasures. This has really inspired me.

[@thecreativecove6898]

Oh that makes me so happy. It’s why I like to make these videos. Thank you 😊

This was a beautiful piece and you nailed it! I wish I was so talented. It's funny that at the end you mentioned going for an oil painting look, because the whole time you kept painting I was like this has that softness and glow of oil paint versus the harshness I usually associate with acrylics. Thank you for sharing so much of your process with us and not just showing an 8 minute clip as is usual these days it really helps us who struggle. 😂

This looks so good, I love it, my thrift finds are never this exciting 😊😊

I love your work but I respectfully disagree about good pain and cheap brushes good paint yes but I think it's just as important for good paint brushes

[@thecreativecove6898]

😊 I would agree as well if I was kinder to my brushes. Lol
