Great demonstration Tim! Your technique on the birch trees gives it a true 3D effect along with being in line with the light source. Im working on a flower that I'm trying to figure out how to go about it. (I'm trying to be in process mode:) Your Vlogs are absolutely wonderful and I appreciate you doing them. I understand that they take a lot of time and effort. Great job Tim and Thank you for all you do!

Hi Tim. I’d like to personally thank you for all of your great videos! Your art has inspired me to start painting. I’d like to get a giclee done of one of my smaller 16 x 20 paintings printed to be made slightly larger for my mom for Mother’s Day. I live in Kitchener. Who do you recommend to get the giclee printed by?

[@timpackerfinearts]

I don't really have anyone to recommend. The reason we started doing our own printing was that I couldn't find anyone whose quality I was happy with.

Tim, what brand of Water Soluble paint do you use? How do you keep the paint from being tacky? I’m in complete awe of your work and very thankful to you for beginning your Vlogs!

[@timpackerfinearts]

Hi Linda, Hi Linda Hi Linda, I use a variety of water soluble oils... I keep them usable longer buy using a sta wet pallette... I also find it very helpful to put a thin coating of the watersoluble linseed oil on the canvas before beginning

[@lindaattaway2579]

Tim Packer Fine Arts thanks Tim! I have found them tacky on their own. I like Cobra brand as they have a wide selection of colours! I am new to WS’s therefore very interested in finding techniques. Often I add regular oils to them. Love watching you paint! Vibrant colours are a big deal to me!
