Impossibile copiarti, sei veramente un talento unico hai un mondo tutto tuo dentro. Non è questione di colori o tecniche speciali,quello che tu hai è la creatività, la dolcezza, la miscellanza dei colori, che sono solo tuoi. Vorrei nella mia vita passare una settimana nel tuo studio, peccato che in questo momento, io non posso acquistare un tuo dipinto. Grazie per tenermi aggiornata. Grazie per

It does not matter what you are painting, or what colors, it always takes me to heaven - in the spiritual sense, just awed.

[@noor-jehanyorobadat3365]

Simply stunning. I love your work Michael. Thank you for the inspiration and sharing your art.

[@MichaelLangArt]

No problem Carlos! I really don't use an actual palette because they are way to small, I have a handful of different size canvas that I use to mix my paint on.The beginning of my last video"turmoil" shows me holding a palette. You'll see more of it in future videos.

[@giulia5440]

makes me think of the sky wit a storm on its way ....very beautiful mr lang

[@diegodijulio9016]

Michael thanks to you i started to paint and i found a passion Thanks from Argentina you are the best.

[@AWhiteBell]

I really like these open process compositions you paint. The demos inspire me to be free in my own painting process.

[@connietolbert1044]

absolutely beautiful, I love to watch you paint, you inspire me to paint more, I just wish I could paint like you, of course you create masterpieces everytime you paint.

[@pmwuttke]

Wonderful watching you work... I've enjoyed several of your works being created.... please keep producing...

[@cocomajo]

michael, your work is breath taking. can watch u all day!

[@MichaelLangArt]

Yes I'm using acrylic mediums to create washes or glazing. The canvas texture has alot to do with it. Not to rough and not to soft.Enjoy!

[@infowazz]

love how you incorporate an organic feeling to your work. feels 3 dimensional

[@MichaelLangArt]

I keep my brushes wet all the time. I keep them in an air tight plastic box.When they need cleaning I use a product called EZ AIR acrylic brush cleaner, probably the best product I've seen.To keep them nice and soft I dip them in fabric softener before putting them away and rinse them with water before using.Hope this helps!...MIX

[@anitopetrova]

Hi Michael, i really enjoy very much and i always watch all you share here. Thanks

[@SherryCarrigan1]

[@SeanHartist]

I really like this, it's very soothing and the colors are very powerful. Fantastic to look at.

[@ChristinePurdy]

Your work is so incredibly beautiful.... Thank you so much for sharing your talent.

[@hilos20]

another great piece! beautiful work Mike! I'm practicing hard!

[@MichaelLangArt]

I hope that's good! I really need a variety but this is all I have at the moment and don't have a lot of extra time to learn how to create something else.

[@javiersierra7702]

maravilloso el dominio del color y la composición, eres un genio del acrílico, tus esfumados y como tratas los detalles . gran creación.

[@MichaelLangArt]

not me Carlos, I use a palette .I pick up my paint, medium and do my mixing there and then apply it to my work (most of the time :) glad you like!

[@momapes]

I very much enjoyed this, Michael. Thanks for showing us how you work- very inspiring. Mo

[@suvrachunder6290]

Just awesome! Love watching your videos.

[@chantalbellon1558]

Whaou c’est tellement beau ce que vous faites ❤

[@MichaelLangArt]

the white stuff is Liquitex acrylic medium and I sign my name with a Chinese calligraphy brush! (takes a little practice) Enjoy!

[@latam.8706]

Thanks. All this time I thought it was just white paint. Is it a gel type or a fluid type. Would it matter at the end of the day? Thanks.

[@MichaelLangArt]

'The Fundamentals of Painting' DVD now available at my web site.

[@NanGarrido]

Felicitaciones, domina la técnica. Lindo cuadro

[@alexandrabluetiles5829]

existiram momentos em que julgava que terminava a obra ,que daria como finalizada e mais uma pincelada não caberia na tela e no entanto foi magico cada momento de transformação ,a adrenalina subia sobe doces pinceladas de cor...estou encantada.parabéns

[@lietteconstant383]

J'adore ce visage qui ne cesse d'attirer mon attention depuis le début de votre travail. Inspirant !

[@latam.8706]

Michael this is one of my favourites along with Velocity!!! All that red in Velocity and all this purple in the Edge ....oh yeah!!!!...my 2 favourite colours! I definitely want one like this and Velocity!!! (In the future) :-) What a beautiful blend here! OMG!

[@adriencaz6895]

I love your paintings fabulous & inspiring thanks for sharing.

[@MichaelLangArt]

I applied a coat of medium before adding paint. I wanted a soft base to work on.

[@MichaelLangArt]

It might show up on DVD! These videos require a'lot of something I don't have much of...

[@MetalGear1942]

Gracias por compartir! Un trabajo exelente, lo felicito!

[@BourbonNut]

Outstanding Michael! Thanks for sharing.

[@MichaelLangArt]

Yes an acrylic medium is what I used in the beginning , Its also what I use to blend and keep it wet. No plan, I just follow the brush.Enjoy!

[@tamiw1146]

Fantastic. Always interesting,fascinating and most enjoyable.Good work.Thank you !

[@monyut6hy334]

Brilliant ..I llove all urwork

[@laverne7686]

This makes me feel involved Amazing

[@MichaelLangArt]

Glad you like! Yes this is acrylic.

[@ahmedbaker9788]

Das war wunderschön. Danke

[@javiersierra7702]

las transparencias que logras con gel son magnificas . el gel y no el agua en el acrílico es fascinante.

[@MariamPareArt]

this music is almost hummable!

[@MichaelLangArt]

Exactly right!

[@Alynzl]

Thank goodness you do art "your way" that is stunning! All my favourite things in a painting, abstract, sharp edges, soft places, deep contrast, glazes.... I especially love all the soft areas, you are so talented. Sorry to ask a question you've probably been asked a thousand times, but are you using acrylic? It seems workable for some time yet you are working over it too. Thank you for sharing, you are my new favourite artist! ...off to watch your other videos.

[@qsiroon64]

Dieser Miachael ist einfach der Wahnsinn,,,was eine Dramatik in seinen Bildern,,,für mich einer der besten Maler...!!

[@nicholas19644]

This video is a great demo for value. It looks like the first colour is paynes grey and then yellow ochre? When starting a piece I have got used to covering the canvas with a layer of medium first and when needed. This makes blending alot easier:)

[@paulepegorier1166]

[@jeanettetuhi7973]

I love your work ML i am new to painting and abstract really intrigues me. I aspire to be as good as you one day. Determined :)

[@TuttoHobby]

Very Very beautiful art!!! Compliments!!

[@marzia201166]

Always beautiful...

[@MichaelLangArt]

Ouch! I take it that you must paint, and frankly I like bananas! MIX

[@phyllisthomason2227]

What medium do you put on the canvas prior to beginning?

[@MichElle-sd6gj]

Mike the mesmerizer.

[@olindaalagalarrondo8937]

BELLISIMO!!!

[@karinegarcia5405]

magnifique ! merci

[@anamontoya3538]

that was inspiring....... thank you.

[@MichaelLangArt]

this painting is laying flat, remember I'm filming this,Its hard to paint on an easel without blocking the camera.

[@abuzazuleikha2520]

Great painting

[@kksilvestri5007]

You make acrylics look and act like oils!!! What is your secret? Fantastic!

[@antonioelzy9704]

KK Daniels Cooking oil ha I’ve actually tried that and it’s not so bad in a pinch

[@gabriellechadd2926]

I liked it just black and white. Would have gone beautifully in my bedroom!!! But I know what it's like - it's never finished!

[@zarak8895]

I love the day KZbin Paint.

[@lm-tg1bk]

Magnifique! i like to see your work in progress, creative and relaxing and so beautiful! Please what colors you used? And thanks for sharing

[@mavismcgowan6044]

I have just discovered you on line, cant get enough, could watch you all day. How long in real time does it take to complete a canvas? please send some tips on colour contrast and how you keep on adding colour. Are you working in acrylic only? Never never stop, Thanks, Mavis.

[@gabriellechadd2926]

I paint on the floor as well. I used to paint with canvas on the wall but I just found more control on the floor. Love your style and painting. Do you frame most of your work or leave them with painted sides?

[@jess65963]

Wonderful! How many stages does it take to complete a painting that size?

[@bwylde1]

I so love your paintings. Wish I could do it but it just doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks for sharing.

[@sabrinaingham3207]

Before you start painting do you have an idea in your head or do you just let your creative juices flow"

[@SuperTruten]

clear jazz

[@UllyUlly7]

I can't stop watching your work. Your color scheme is so energyzing,(sp?) Did you prepare your canvas first with a medium? I never saw you adding water or any medium . It is great work LOVE all your work. Thank you for sharing

[@foekist7312]

Cool. Thanks very much for sharing. Though I don't know why you won't show us how you create those paintings that look like they are poured onto the canvas. You know the ones I am referring to. It's the same ones that everyone else is asking for.

[@lindarosetennant9008]

you are such a tease Michael not giving too much away, but I just love your work. If you are ever feeling generous please share with us what the exact medium is that you use ie brand, and what it is called Pleeeeease!

[@jeaninelucci5358]

Bonjour , quel est la marque de votre médium ? Merci

[@heidiangvik8571]

Best painting i have ever seen👍 What Brand type brushes do You use? Cant find some good ones her i live

[@over50suk17]

They are his own brushes that you can buy from Amazon

[@Moomstex]

What prompts you to have your canvas above eye (and shoulder) level when you paint?

[@HarmonyThiessen]

Love this one Micheal! Wow. So when you are adding the additional layers...the yellows, light and darker blues and pink (magenta) you are glazing correct? I don't see glazing medium anywhere on your table but it appears to be glaze that you even add a bit of T white with on occasion. I am working away at the blending techniques and glazing for me anyway is not near as easy as it appears. :-)

[@lynnbaskind1119]

Maybe film from bottom right corner so we can see the symphony of your hands and how they play with paint and brushes. What is the magic that goes on down there? Thanks for sharing your magnificent work.

[@xavitto29]

magnifique !!!!

[@eyiug]

Question: Which is what you print at the beginning, before color (transparent)?, Is liquid medium? gel? What kind is it?. Thanks! I love all his works! so much art and beauty!

[@Moomstex]

So much for my sense of perspective! Ha! Thanks for the explanation. Now I won't attempt giving myself bursitis....

[@hilos20]

ah, question. With your acrylics, do you go straight from the tube to the canvas and then work it in with the matte medium? I remember you mentioned that you don't use water ever only the medium?

[@KeyserSoseRulz]

Great art. Hey Michael could you give me two tips about your technique? a) What is the white stuff you spread on the canvas at the very beginning? b) What is the pencil/tool you use to sign your art? It comes out so neat! Cheers!

[@StuWright]

Hi ,just discovered your work, interesting to see how others work, I`m curious, what is holding the canvas?

[@chardeplate4652]

Reading the comments its funny we thought painting was hanging, I thought ouch! [I have neck problems] after reading then going back & looking I thought truly a GREAT abstract artist U got our attentions with both art & filming! LOL Is the liquitex medium a 'glaze' or does it read medium.

[@barbaracarter1437]

[@mammoudi1]

[@melaninwarrior6420]

hey mark can you tell me if the brush size makes a difference?

[@MFDSProductions]

Sorry for the late reply but is your question aimed at me?

[@lorettafranchini4633]

Bellissimi tocca n o L:- anima

[@LK-pb4no]

This looks like the stairway to heaven! What acrylic mediums do you use to get such a beautiful blend.

[@MichaelLangArt]

Im using Liquitex matte medium and Michael Lang brushes! Glad you like...MIX

[@LK-pb4no]

Thank you Michael. I really appreciate it. I am going to try it and I will be getting your brushes in the future.

[@angelical1340]

DESFRUTE MUCHO, BELISIMO...

[@barryjones6458]

What do you pour from a bottle onto the canvas before you commence painting?

[@over50suk17]

Water?

[@over50suk17]

Or medium to prolong the paint from dying out?

[@LK-pb4no]

Below he responded to me and said he uses Liquitex Matte medium when blending so I'm guessing that is the same he's using in the beginning because the paint lightens and it didn't look like water.

[@juliai4672]

Does the shape of the brushes make a difference in this style of painting? If so can you please tell me what kind do you use? Thank you

[@MFDSProductions]

The key isn't necessarily the shape of the brush head but the softness of the bristles. The softer the bristles the easy it can be to blend the paint and the less streaks that will be left behind. I hope that helps you a little.

[@juliai4672]

Thank you for the tip! And for taking time to reply! I absolutely love your paintings!

[@MFDSProductions]

I think your mistaken, I'm not Mix Lang but i'm glad i could help.

[@juliai4672]

Omg, so sorry! It has been a long time since I left that comment asking a question, so when I got a reply I didn't even check from who and just assumed ( wrong) ! Thank you so much MARK, for seeing my question and taking time to answer! :-)

[@MFDSProductions]

Hehe, it's a pleasure and no need for the apology. it would be nice to be as good as him though :-P Take care

[@hilos20]

this is the most rookie question I'm about to ask but, when you say palette you literally mean where you place your paint? so, from tube/jar to palette then mixing medium and or other paints/colors to canvas? I should take an art class really. LOL! Thanks again Mike!

[@MsLadyMuslima]

Did you wait for layers to dry?

[@manshoorhonar3522]

Nice

[@azaz874]

What are using on the canvas to make the paint flow so easily ? :)

[@kerricorser4562]

I'm guessing a wetting medium in his water and glazing medium on his fat brush

[@kristinaavf]

how do you save your brushes from liquitex?? two of my brushes are no more.. :(

[@34caminante]

Are you painting with acrylic or ? I see the brush very dry and when I do acrylic some times drips. thank you, I did like it.

[@chandrasowmiana7549]

nice
