Learn How to Draw and Paint "DAY MOON DRIFTER" with Acrylics- Paint & Sip at Home - Fun Art Tutorial

PAINTING VIDEO DESCRIPTION - Are you a beginner painter? Want to learn how to paint with acrylics? Looking for an easy painting idea? Let me be your acrylic art instructor as I teach you easy step-by-step instructions throughout this fun beginner art video as you learn how to paint a lady floating in the water with a moon in the sky-an easy landscape and portrait painting “Day Moon Drifter”. As a KZbinr and art influencer, I offer free online video art tutorials for beginners. My online videos are easy-to-follow as I use a limited palette and number of brushes and I break everything down into titled chapters using step-by-step instructions on how to paint canvas art with acrylics. From fantasy art and animal portraits to flower paintings and landscapes, to impressionism, realism and abstract, I offer it all. In addition to the online art tutorials, I also offer additional painting benefits to my patreon members, including, exclusive art tutorials as part of a series of paintings I call “Paintings for Patreons”, educational classes with lessons on everything from how to paint clouds to how to paint fur, and from how to sell your art to how to own your own paint and sip business, live paint and sip classes, personal critiques from me on your artwork, as well as, access to a Private Facebook Group called “Michelle’s Painting Group” where I have monthly art contests, skills challenges and giveaways. Patreon members also get discounts on art supplies from my shop where you can buy Michelle the Painter Brushes. A popular new benefit for patreon members is what I call “Paint My Photo”, where patreons get to send in their personal photographs for me to turn into an art tutorial on KZbin. As a special reward, the patreon will receive the original painting for free. Today’s painting is a free art tutorial on KZbin of a woman floating on her back in the water. In the eleven steps in this beginner online art video you'll learn how to paint a dramatic sky with a day moon shining brightly, how to paint an ocean, waves and ripples, how to paint wet hair and add layers of colors to create volume and texture, how to paint a face and add highlight and shadows to create contours and curves on the skin. Throughout this easy art lesson, you'll learn fundamental beginner painting techniques, including, one brushstroke, stippling, and scumbling, in order to create this beautiful tranquil scenery painting. You'll learn how to mix and blend acrylic paint to create vibrant and captivating colors for your wall art. The painting process is so simple for this beginner acrylic art lesson that it'll feel easier than a paint by numbers painting. Using only 3 brushes and 7 colors, you’ll paint like a professional! Have fun with this art tutorial and paint it abstract, impressionistic, or pop art. Paint on wood, paper, glass, or any surface. Have a date night at home, paint party, sip and paint event, or virtual paint night. Paint with gouache, oil paint, or watercolor, any medium will work! It’s an easy art project for everyone. Paint just for fun or for art therapy. I hope you enjoy watching this KZbin channel art video and let's get painting and let's get sipping!

Hey Bestie. This is sooooooooo amazing. In my meditation sessions they often refer to this , just close you eyes and think of yourself floating . Free with God’s hand holding you. Omg, Bestie. This is a must . You of course make it look so real. I would love to get close to this. But I am going to have to try. Its perfect in my world. Thank you so much for all your wonderful talent and your time. The wonderful to receive a message of a painting from you. The highlight to my life. I know,……….I need to get out more…..lol. Love you thanks so much BBout

You are amazing thank you so much ❤❤❤❤

[@michellethepainter.]

Thank you!

[@danitamills6689]

I like the challenge of this painting. Watching it become so realistic is a nod to your talent. Do all your paintings need to be on canvas? For me, I am looking at it as cost-effective to paint if I could use acrylic paper for the practice.

[@michellethepainter.]

Hi Danita, you can paint on any surface you want. Have fun!

[@ramonabehan4177]

Holy smokes!
