@@nuclearthunder562 ummm… like… you do… ummm… like… do… know… ummm… durra urra… ummm… you do like… ummm… know… ummm… that… there… is… like… a… ummm… dammit… man… ummm… like… durra urra… ummm… there is… like… ummm… what do ya call it… ummm… oh yeah… it’s a… ummm… like… called a “SLIDER” down there… ummm… like… at the bottom of the screen that… ummm… allows you to… like… ummm… FAST FORWARD to ANY part of the video!?!?!? So, I take it that you are just too lazy to scroll through the video to the part where he gets down to business but NOT too lazy to go COMPLAIN about him NOT GETTING TO THE POINT quick enough!?!?!? You see, simply put, that is what is wrong with the world today!!! It’s full of people just like yourself that will take the time to put out/release/express all this NEGATIVE ENERGY but NEVER takes the time to put out POSITIVE ENERGY!!! Yes, we are all entitled to our own opinions but haven’t you every heard the age-old adage of, “if you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say anything at all”??? If not, then you may want to remember it right now and start living by it. Yes, you can put your comment down about “getting to the point” but you also could’ve said something like, “NICE VIDEO” or anything positive to go along with your mediocre critique of this man’s video. This man’s video, which by the way, I thought was FREAKING AWESOME to say the least… and that is a huge UNDERSTATEMENT!!! So, moving forward, let’s practice putting out some POSITIVE ENERGY into this negative world we currently reside in!?!?!? Oh, and one last thing… I HOPE I GOT TO THE POINT FAST ENOUGH FOR YOU!!! 😂😂😂

[@DFWJon]

CURE YOUR MIND - Maybe, just maybe, he will make a video about how he edits his videos to make them so appealing to the viewer!?!?!? This was awesome video editing and the content was AWESOME as well. That picture was bad ass!!! Now, I do know that you must have great content, as well, but I would love to know how to edit a video the “right” way. Hell, it could even be titled, “how to edit your BORING AND MEDIOCRE video to make it SUPER DUPER SPECTACULAR, just like my videos”!!! 😂😂😂 But, in all seriousness, I would LOVE to see a video that he made about editing videos.

[@mylesadams1662]

interesting does it work out cheaper? also find it interesting that normal premade ones have those pegs for creating tension in the canvas and yours didn't i guess you have pull it tighter yourself whilst its being stapled?

[@randyknecht1]

Thanks!

Inch and a half, by inch and a half..? What should we do with the additional half inch remaining..?

I kid...😂 Cool video.

[@Watchalewknat]

Curious sir, what specifically did you use to prime?

[@TMPK]

Watchalewknat I think all I had was some white semi-gloss trim paint lol I looked up what I was supposed to use but who has gesso just laying around? 😑

[@normaharrod5337]

Hey ladies, my husband said thats a miter saw that's making those angles cuts... incase you were thinking of buying your own tools!

[@setlists_and_dogpics]

Love this!! With a canvas that large, you may need some bracing in the center and stretcher bars- so you can re-tighten the linen as it stretches out when painted. I'd love it if you could make a video of this!

[@gerganafotakieva3726]

I agree. Can you please tell me the artist/ music you're playing ?

@@Sylentpoet unfortunately I didn’t write down the songs back then. The music on this video probably came from artlist. A website for copyright-free music.

hi sir...what kind of paint you use in priming canvas??thank you..❤️.btw your painting is insane 💯...looks its easy for you..😁 ❤️

[@TMPK]

Thanks! I just used regular white trim paint. I think you’re supposed to use something called gesso. Or buy a pre-primed roll of canvas.

[@TMPK]

Diva'ja thank you!

[@thankuwelcome2153]

Dude you are AMAZING!

[@kyleorr533]

An idea you may can play with, is build it exactly as you did, but add quarter round around the perimeter. You’ll have the beveled edge facing toward the inside of the canvas. That way, the only thing the canvas touches on the front is the thin edge of the quarter round. If you don’t do this, when you go to brush along the perimeter, some times you’ll get a line forming in your painting where the brush drags off the edge of the wood framing underneath. Doing it with the quarter round suspends it almost like a drum. Great video 👍

[@TMPK]

Someone else suggested I should bevel it a little bit. Such a good idea. I’ll definitely be adjusting my method next time I build a canvas! Thanks!

[@peterreece2340]

I was watching for that. My first stretcher was square wood and the brush strokes on the painting showed it up. You must bevel or glue on a small strip all around the frame to suspend the canvas,

[@DavidLaMorte]

Omg I just said something similar. Even like a 15 degree slant would make this much more fun to paint on. Maybe it doesn’t matter if you’re using spray paint and not a brush.

I ABSOLUTELY agree with your comment here! I was in a positive shock the entire time. I had immediately begun to post my reaction to what I had just witnessed. I then figured I would like to see what other people thought of his work. Just to find out that each comment was describing what I had immediately felt about his work [from beginning until the end]. I was also only searching for a tutorial on creating my own canvas, and he had delivered so much more. 😄 I hope you have been able to create your sturdy canvases and masterpieces of your artwork after watching his tutorial. Take care and stay safe. 😊

[@mixtapemanny7473]

I'm so glad I discovered this video as I always wanted to make my own canvases as most of the time I never get the sizes I want and have to settle for what they have at the stores. Moreover, I love the carefree approach Jared takes as he takes the fear out of making the canvas cause I've always been the "I hope I don't butcher this project" and afraid to make mistakes type. All I needed to hear was "it's just like wrapping a Christmas present." The artwork it self is also amazing. I love the bridges at dawn or at dusk, not to sure yet either way I love the feel of the painting. Thanks bud. Happy Saturday all.

[@TMPK]

Thanks! Some of the comments were mentioning that I should have tapered the wood a little bit so it only touches on the outside edge. So next time I’m going to do it a little different but the way I did it in this video works just fine.

just FYI never use graphite on a canvas if you use oils, the graphite tends to show up after a while, since is a lubricant. Some use fixative but it is better to use a stabilo yellow pencil

You could take the wood glue and dab it on the fraying ends of the canvas so that it doesn’t shed and unravel. Great job with it though 👍

[@Rinny0o]

Sorry to bother, But I'm going to be getting a pretty expensive painted canvas coming in, I know the dimensions, should I get a smaller or bigger canvas 😩 It's 23.4 x 33.1 I have no idea what I'm doing and to get wood on the back Michael's estimated 300 dollars!

[@TMPK]

So you’re getting a painted canvas and you need to stretch it onto a frame? All the canvas I have stretched have been blank. I imagine it would be similar to thy but you’d have to be careful not to stretch one party more than another cause it might distort the painting or crack the paint? 🤷‍♂️ maybe ? Lol I really don’t know. I would wait till the painting arrives, then get measurements of where you want it to fold over the frame. Then build the frame that size. Then fold it around and stretch it gently and staple on the back. $300 might be worth it if it’s real important. Sometimes it’s best left to the professionals. Then again, the “professional” could be someone who knows nothing about it and mess it up worse than you would 😂 good luck!

[@ElevatedPosiVibes111]

Where can I find the measurements?

[@Aaron_nautic]

Amazing sir, I have a question. How would you hang that thing on wall?

[@TMPK]

Thanks! You could just balance it on a nail or screw or maybe buy one of those little sawtooth picture hangers and attach it to the back. I think most canvas painting have a wire attached to the back from side to side then hang the wire on a nail. 🤷‍♂️ lots of options lol

[@dardaniailly1415]

Good day, I'm new to this journey. I just have a question, what is the best wood type to use for long-lasting canvas?

[@TMPK]

I’m not sure what kind of wood would be the best, but I like using spruce or pine. I’ve never had a canvas fall apart but they’re always indoors at regular temperatures. Check out my newer video on making a canvas though. I found a better way

[@PattyDiosa]

What kind of wood should I buy, is a soft wood good for this project? because I'm not very strong when screwing the screws, thank you so much!

[@TMPK]

I’ve always used pine or spruce and it’s always worked for me. Those are both soft woods. If you’re having trouble screwing the screws you should look into an impact drill. They do all the hard work for you! Also pre-drill! Pre-drilling makes it so much easier. Good luck!
