Your box of colorful paper reminds me of a beautiful ball gown. I’ve started making and saving it same as you!

These days I am watching your videos and enjoy a lot .I am from Iran but have been living in vancouver ,Canada since 3 years ago. You speak with good accent and perfect sentences and use so useful words and your voice is kind of medeitation ❤❤I am learning painting and improving my English skills at the same time .Actually I am killing two birds with one stone 😂😂 I appreciate that .And I wonder if your education was related to literature or maybe you read books a lot .However I want to thank you again .Yesterday I told myself I wish we were in the same city and could meet each other in person .I hope you continue on youtube and be successful always .❤

[@marabethquinart]

Hi Raana! I so appreciate all of the kind words 🥰 Your English is very impressive-I can’t imagine how hard that is to learn an entirely new language. I hope you are enjoying Vancouver, it’s such a lovely place! Keep creating! And if you ever want to take a class, I hope you join one of mine. 😊

Very beautiful! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@marabethquinart]

My pleasure, Rhonda. I love sharing. 😊

[@susanorban3059]

I loved watching you do this and it turned out gorgeous! I'm going to rewatch it again and hone into some technique. Thanks so much!❤

[@marabethquinart]

So glad you enjoyed it, Susan!

[@G.G.8GG]

This is a beautiful technique! Thank you.

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you 😊

[@bettyh1100]

I took the plunge and am taking Marabeth’s course, I love it! Although she makes it look easy it’s not . I’ve only just started. I’ve never taken any art courses before glad I chose this one.😊

[@marabethquinart]

You just let me know if I can help in any way, I’m happy to. It’s definitely a learning curve, but that’s also the fun of learning a new process. Happy New Year, Betty!

Beautiful! Have you made a video about creating the painted tissue paper? Do you use wet strength tissue, or have you mastered the delicacy of plain gift wrap tisue? Thank you😊

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you! Xoxo

[@angiewillsonarte]

Love thinning with golden!! I like it so much and use it more than my thicker matte mediums! Great tip🥰

[@marabethquinart]

I do too-it is my most used material!

[@salmo6263]

Wow!!

[@marabethquinart]

Thanks for watching!

[@shmales7023]

Pretty!!

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you ☺️

[@creativepassages]

This is lovely and very inspiring!!

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you so much!

[@lindadamon2453]

Thank you Marabeth. I've been loving your work, it truly sparks inspiration for me. I'm expecting the arrival of a gelli plate tomorrow 😂. I have been using a box of baking paper, ( which promised to be non stick and didnt keep it's promise in the kitchen), to create some transparent collage papers, mostly with watercolour and marks. I love the idea of diluting acrylic and painting. Play, play playtime 😂❤

[@marabethquinart]

It’s so fun, I spend hours making papers and am in heaven! I’m glad you’re liking it and thank you for the kind words

[@carolbenavidez2228]

So beautiful! 💖

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@Pattymelt415]

Love it. What acrylic paint would you suggest as a set? Liquids? tubes? Thanks❤

[@marabethquinart]

Any acrylic that you like will work, but if I had to suggest a very pigmented brand that I love, a good one is Nova Color. There are others though so you have lots of choices.

[@Pattymelt415]

@@marabethquinart I really appreciate your response. Tell me, how do you keep your brushes clean and how do you keep your hands clean? Since I've been learning about acrylics I've never had more dryer, dishpan hands. I tried to buy a nontoxic brush cleaner but it turned out to be terribly toxic. called bristle magic. Any suggestions beyond soap?

[@marabethquinart]

I will use Murphy’s Oil Soap to soak them when they are a bit dried and crusty. Then I wash them out (not nearly enough!) with “The Masters brush cleaner and preserver”. But I cannot attest to what the ingredients of it are. And as far as keeping my hands clean, I wipe them a lot, but I also love using the Golden Satin Glazing Liquid more than matte medium because it doesn’t cake on my hands as much.

[@marabethquinart]

Thank you 😊

[@lauradill1447]

how do you create your acrylic tissue paper? perhaps a video on this process will be helpful?..

[@marabethquinart]

I show a bit in this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWGqZmR8jK6medEsi=BA_t1Ty5xMS9N6UX and I also teach this in depth in two of my classes: marabethquinart.thinkific.com/courses

[@susanboyter9034]

Did I see a video of yours where you are quickly making you painted tissue paper? If so which video is it .I've been looking over and over and cant find it

[@marabethquinart]

I’m pretty sure it’s this one: “Making Dynamic Layers with collage Papers”

[@robertawenzel8178]

what paint sticks are you use

[@marabethquinart]

Those are Shuttle Art Tempera Paint Sticks
