How To Transform a Painting with Collage and Mixed Media

[@marilyncarlstead2601]

Yes, please, more transformations!!!

[@ingelagoransson3560]

Please continue do painting makeovers. I have LOTS of paintings that I need new inspiration to finish. 😂😊

[@brendadevery6409]

Yes please love watching the transformation of an older piece of work.

[@Mr.MKBone]

Laura , your youtube channel brings joy to my life U don’t know how much you inspire me and I am sure to many across the globe ❤

[@LauraHornArt]

Your warm comments mean so much to me, thank you so much 😊✨

[@marybuhl6097]

Yes, more rescues of all kinds please

[@patpierson8986]

Yes, yes! I love the makeovers! It’s amazing what you do with collage, marks and string!

[@marymullins5976]

Yes please... I too have loads of unfinished pages that could see the light of day again.. and perhaps be transformed 😊

[@angelakapler2997]

Yes to more makeovers!

[@paulamorrison5850]

Love to see more painting makeovers❤❤❤❤❤ thank you so much Laura ❤

[@LauraHornArt]

Thank you. I love a good painting makeover and look forward to making more videos like this one. Super fun!

[@maryellensanger]

I adore this color palette and appreciate the reminder to add pops of color. I love the bright blue too

[@LauraHornArt]

It's amazing what pops of colour can do. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@marjieiversen5175]

Thank you so much, Laura. I loved watching you make the changes to your painting. It was amazingly helpful to have you walk through the process of making over the old painting and seeing how much your changes improved the work. Loved it and yes, please show us more examples of making over old paintings that didn't quite work. 🙃😊🥰😘

[@barbarasalmi3103]

Yes! More transformations, please❤

[@kathrynlarsen5852]

Yes, I would love to see more transformations! I also have many paintings that could use some refreshing. I love all of your classes I have taken… love your style!❤

[@LauraHornArt]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@katemorganart5876]

I’d like to see that beautiful bulletin board behind you😊❤❤❤

[@lizard571]

Time to drag out my box of "failures" and see if they respond to a makeover. Loved where you went with this piece 🤩

[@Sketchbook9999]

You only fail if you don't TRY. Box of failures just may turn into a box of masterpieces 😊

[@LauraHornArt]

Please do! I bet you'll find that many of those little "failures" are actually a box of magic waiting for you!

[@vanessasierra9629]

Yes, More Transformations please!

[@MerielEvans-s7l]

Would love to see more videos exploring ways of moving paintings forward. Thank you ❤

[@LauraHornArt]

Noted! I love the idea of sharing "ways to move paintings forward"

[@sharontanner9000]

Love seeing the transformation. It’s inspiring to use those “failures “ and bring them back to life. More examples please.❤

[@LauraHornArt]

Wonderful feedback, so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@sheilaschmid7768]

Yes yes yes! More makeovers please - I have some paintings that I've shoved in a closet because I like some aspects of them, but dislike others. Now I see the way you transformed yours and would love to see more!

[@LauraHornArt]

Yay, I am glad this idea is getting some traction as I am like you - plenty of paintings in the closet! I feel like KZbin is a great place to share the transformations.

[@annadammert5920]

So much fun! Love to see transformations, because it shows ways to keep working on a piece to making it something new… and for a beginner like me, not liking the first draft happens a lot lol

[@LauraHornArt]

I love that! Thank you for such sweet feedback. I am always reworking things I do not like, or scrapping first drafts. I think that is all part of the creative process, so you are right where you need to be! 😊

[@jilliantoombs6975]

More transformations would be marvelous! Thank you 😊

[@rebeccamoore4177]

You have inspired me to work on a bad watercolor attempt that is just hanging around glaring at me. Your colors are fabulous. And the idea of reusing something (s) is so good.

[@tchecasinca]

oh yes yes yes Please Laura😍

[@dianecourtney2724]

Love what you’ve done ✌🏼🌷

[@LauraHornArt]

Thank you so much!

[@tasticola]

Loved this. Yes please, I'd very much like to see more. I've not stitched in my art for a long time. So encouraging! Thanks Laura x Nell.

[@LauraHornArt]

Thank you! I go back and forth with stitching too! It's great to revisit old ideas.

[@tasticola]

​@@LauraHornArtabsolutely agree! It's exciting too when you've forgotten that you used to do something and someone reminds you how good it is!! 😊

[@Resgerr]

Yes I would love to see more make overs

[@michelleh9685]

@710 when you put down the collage paper, you gave us a platypus! Well thats what jumped out to me lol.

[@LauraHornArt]

Haha, I will have to go back and check it out, it always amuses me the things people see in art!!

[@sjmsutherland]

OoOO yes please, would definitely like to see more transformation videos!! This was a great video!!xx

[@VanessaWestwood]

Wow never thought of using embroidery thread! Always learning ✨

[@LauraHornArt]

Glad you found a new spark! I love adding a bit of thread; you can also run pieces through a sewing machine, which looks great too!

[@VanessaWestwood]

@@LauraHornArt I'm assuming you used watercolor paper? Possible to do embroidery thread on canvas?

[@LauraHornArt]

@@VanessaWestwood yes I am working on watercolour paper. I've used embroidery on unstretched canvas and then stretched later. Haven't tried on a stretched canvas. Wonder if that is possible?

[@MadisonBriggsArtchick]

YES more!!!

Great video, thanks Laura. Can you tell me the artist in the background song you play please? It’s really stuck with me but I can’t find out who it is! Thanks 😊

[@tamarapaskvan6704]

Very nice!. What kind of off white marker did you use to make short lines? Those marks are my favourite. Well done!

[@LauraHornArt]

Thank you, it's a Posca PC-5M in the colour beige.

[@tamarapaskvan6704]

Thank you for your answer Laura!

[@veroniquelennon6246]

Where do you buy deli paper from in Australia?

[@LauraHornArt]

Greaseproof paper is called deli paper in the US. It's used primarily for wrapping sandwiches and isn't suitable for putting in the oven. Mine isn't as transparent as I like, so I might try another brand. The one I have at the moment is the Armarda brand from Woolworths. You can also get deli paper in some craft shops that is imported from the US. It's more expensive, though, and pretty similar to what is called "greaseproof paper" in Australia. I hope that helps!

[@leannerourke7058]

Can you please tell us where to buy deli paper from, here in Australia ?

[@LauraHornArt]

I use greaseproof paper! It's similar although maybe less transparent. The one I have at the moment is the Armarda brand from Woolworths.
