Painting people with acrylics demonstration - Riverside Walk

In this video I am painting with a full palette of acrylic paints, using mostly Raphael KEVRIN (8608 and 8600 series - sizes 10 and 12) and Raphael Softacryl (861series - sizes 2, 6 and 8) brushes. The support is a thick sealed and primed cardboard, toned with neutral grey paint. I hope you enjoy the demonstration!

Relaxed, uncomplicated and very beautifully painted. I really enjoyed watching. It reminded me of happy sunny days. Love it

I absolutely love your painting and style. You inspire me to paint the same style method that you do. Many thanks to you. ☺️

Fabulous mam

[@marciagerenutti6983]

Olá Lena, obrigada por dividir seu belo trabalho conosco! Tenho uma dúvida: quando você pinta sobre papel, qual tipo de papel usa e se esse papel tem que ser protegido por uma camada de tinta ou de qualquer outro produto antes de começar a pintar. Grata.

[@LenaRivo]

Olá Márcia, neste video eu estou a pintar numa placa de cartao com uma ou duas camadas da tinta acrylica por cima. Mas eu gosto de pintar com acrylico sobre paper para aguarella (sem qualquer preparação especial). O papel só deve ser grosso, tipo 300 gsm.

[@marciagerenutti6983]

Obrigada pela resposta.

[@leehaynsworthforbes9666]

Are you working from an off camera photograph? If so it would help to show it several times.

[@katyacarrington3164]

Hi Lena. Do you use your watercolour box for acrylic paint also and how do you clean it when acrylic finally dries up?

[@LenaRivo]

Katya Carrington Hi Katya, I squeezed my acrylics into the box only last September, had done a painting and didn’t used them since then. I keep the box in a plastic bag all the time. I have just checked the paints, they are in perfect condition, absolutely fresh. I was prepared that they would eventually dry but they didn’t. I opened the box about a month ago and sprayed the paint with a palette wetting spray from Liquitex. I use the same spray while painting with acrylics to prevent the paints from drying. Maybe this is why my acrylics are still fresh... In general I don’t let my paints dry, neither gouache nor acrylics, but if your paint is already dry you can use a knife to scrape it off and then you can fill the box with new paints. I’ll send you a photo of my palette and how I store it to your email in a minute. Hope this helps.

I wonder tho how many hours do you need to finish this painting?

[@LenaRivo]

Joy Doke Hi Joy, this one didn’t take more that two hours and a half.

[@joy0953]

@@LenaRivo including the sketch?

[@LenaRivo]

Joy Doke yes

[@joy0953]

@@LenaRivo oh wow So I participate in a painting contest and I watched your video before the contest. I try to use your art style so I can finish the painting on time but it ends up unfinished

[@arte8de]

Классно!

[@roxannekeomaka4754]

Are you drawing on canvas board with a B pencil?

[@LenaRivo]

This is a gessoed cardboard. Not canvas. Maybe I was using a B pencil.. I don't remember. When I paint on canvas I use only a brush and paint to draw...
