Oil Painting for Beginners | Supply List

[@lucianhodoboc1611]

But I want my first painting to be a masterpiece that will be in a museum for centuries to come...

[@TheBenevolent]

Exactly me all the frickin time!

[@yataBEAR]

Lol me too 🥺😭😂

[@jb111082]

Well......Then just start slapping paint onto a canvass with no rhyme or reason, call it "Modern Art" and voila! Masterpiece!

[@KingArthurreturns]

I suggest a Chinese leader then 🤭😂

[@Tanko_420]

Well that’s too bad cause your first painting is gonna be shit

[@thejakobistable]

Why don't you have more views, I had to dive deep in youtube for this

[@paintcoach]

jakob law thanks! Please help me out and share the videos. More coming soon!

[@courtneynguyen3820]

Appreciate how straight to the point and honest your video was. I’ve been painting with acrylics for years, but I’m trying to start using oils. So many confusing things about it, and just need somewhere to start. Thanks for the advice 😃

[@Sam-s2l3o]

Thank you for getting to the point immediately! Most videos take forever to get into it.

[@paintcoach]

K L hahah I know what you mean

[@arcofprado]

Great video! I actually have been oil painting for a while but wanted to see what you had to say and this is perfect for beginners! What I would have loved to hear when I started out

[@paintcoach]

Martín Prado glad you enjoyed the video. I have a lot more to come.

[@ItsMissTavares]

I love how back then you didn’t recommend water mixable oil paint but now seeing your recent videos you actually love them 😆

[@absolutebuffoon6375]

I just received some oil paints as a Christmas gift, I'm very excited to learn with them!

[@paintcoach]

YES!

[@q780]

What brand?

[@q780]

[@gabedugmore8521]

Winsor and Newton

[@MikaelaThayer]

This helped me so much! Thank you! I love your channel. You get straight to the point and tell us helpful information!!

[@dianthus63]

This was a great video. I really want to learn to paint and took a local class. It was pretty overwhelming so I've been binging on beginner videos. Yours is encouraging and I'm going to give that class another try. Thanks.

[@paintcoach]

dianthus63 thanks! Yes most classes and even KZbin videos can be overwhelming bc the instructor feels the need to flex their knowledge. I feel the best way is to keep things as simple as possible and have the student have as much fun as possible to get some momentum. I see it similar to the way most people first learn the guitar not through lessons but through learning their favorite licks

[@ASpectacular3777]

This was very helpful. Much thanks

[@jrlakin370]

Again, simple and brilliant. Great work your doing here man 👍😎

[@paintcoach]

Jim Lakin thanks!

[@agathageorgiana9967]

Many many thanks for all your videos! Loads of great advice 👍

[@camgscott]

Love your videos bro. Simple and straight the point with no bs. Superb!

[@paintcoach]

Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@MissyASTB]

Do you have a video on how to clean brushes after oil painting

[@melaniesalavante]

Aha! Just found this video. Checking this one out. “...as soon as possible, and as cheap as possible.”

[@richardmoody5172]

I just signed up for the painting course and I would like to know want to know is ; how many hours is the course and can I start it in 1 month or 2 months or how flexible are you with a starting date. Thanks, Rick

[@SpokenBroke]

Loving your videos! Any advice on gesso?

[@mercifulloveocd]

i am starting with my oil paint...is there any tips for mixing colors

[@pim1234]

The residu sinks in the jar, you take the clean thinner out and how do you get the residu out of the ajr after that ?

[@Megzamani]

Thank you.

[@LifeLostSoul]

If I have mineral spirits and linseed oil lying around the house from woodworking projects can i use that? Like is it different in anyway?

[@TheBuldog2000]

Amen fantastic 👌🙌👋👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏👍⭐️

[@InvisibleAli]

Would you suggest buying a decent size sketchbook and priming the pages and painting on them for practice.

[@paintcoach]

mohd ali I’ve seen that done but I have never done it. I just buy a canvas pad which is already primed canvas in book form haha I always highly recommend keeping things simple as possible when starting out and buying a sketchbook and gesso and priming paper sounds a lot harder than just buying canvas paper.

[@lpgibbo7463]

Good vid but I have to convert everything into British e.g. Michaels becomes The Range!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lisbond3728]

i have no idea with oil painting..i just did my 1st paint but its already 4days still didnt dry..its far harder than watercolor

[@Cue_Card]

can I just use a clean rag instead of paper towels?

[@kuriboh635]

I would not recommend it if you use any oils or paint thinners, because rags soaked in alcohol or oil based substances can combust if not disposed of properly.

[@Cue_Card]

@@kuriboh635 ah thanks for the advice mate!

[@graphicbull6355]

what is the difference between a medium and a paint thinner?

[@elliewithg]

Is that Jack Peason? 😍

[@MARCONI_ART]

💯

[@michaelmcewan432]

Excellent help

[@paintcoach]

michael mc ewan thanks!

[@samsammmm470]

i didnt understand this, he said dont bother with the water solluble stuff but then picked up water soluble paints. im confused and dont get what i need

[@arandomambipom9444]

Milo in the background aye

[@paintcoach]

Amarki good eye

[@Sulamanjansulttaani]

The more i paint "exercises" the less fun im having.. i just want to paint what ever i want, but will i become better that way?

[@louiswolfe5012]

Will this all be under $100

[@maggie5126]

Theoretically, yes. If you go for the smallest of each option you can definitely stay under 100$.

[@travisdrahozal1753]

No gesso?

[@maggie5126]

2 months late, but you can get pre-gessoed canvases

[@iamme8984]

im crying in germany here bc there are no michaels or craft store 😭😭😭

[@maggie5126]

🤔 where do Germain artists shop then?
