Painting Smoky Backgrounds Two Ways - Step by Step Acrylic Painting on Canvas for Beginners

In this video, I’ll be showing you how to paint a smoky, moody background in two different ways. This is a great technique for beginners and up!
Verbal instruction in this painting video!! You guys have asked for it, and who am I to deny you? I'll walk you through two different backgrounds, step-by-step.
I’m painting on a 12x16 stretched canvas, but you can paint on any type and size of canvas you like.
The brushes I use are:
• A 1 inch flat brush in the first segment
• A 3/4 inch natural hair round brush in the second segment
I’m using Liquitex Basics paints in the following colors:
• Titanium White
• Mars Black
• Burnt Umber
But feel free to experiment with your colors!
