Really enjoyed this video. It made me think of my painting in a new way. And I’m excited to work out my new perception of the world

[@deblockrol]

great video

[@ExploreAcrylics]

Thanks for the visit

[@elainesmusic473]

Thank you for this= very cerebral!!! We all desire to perfect our painting skills, and most of us fall short in some way. Always something new to understand with regard to nuances, as you say.

[@debross5622]

Thanks for that explanation Mark, I still have so much to learn. Loving the videos!

[@AshaJacobb]

😊

[@mazkraut9776]

Oooh, this is so helpful!! Thank you Mark! I kind of know that I'm not very good yet, and having the skills put into a structure like this and explained is really super-helpful to me right now. It will make it easier, I anticipate, to practise the right things at the right time, and also a not-so-good painting seems less of an overall disaster when I can separate out what exactly might be wrong with it, using your explanation!

[@bearbait7405]

Thank you

[@ExploreAcrylics]

You're welcome

[@MrTelemikey]

Very cool Mark. Many thanks for putting these videos out. I'm starting to muck around with paint more and more and rely on these types of instructional videos to help me become better. Still and long long way to go though. I need to paint like a demon 😉

[@parvaiznaseem8831]

Very helpful Video. Specially when you get into an Artist Block.

[@AshaJacobb]

[@ExploreAcrylics]

[@katerinaathanasiou8485]

Σας ακολουθώ καιρό αλλά δε ξέρω καλά αγγλικά και δεν καταλαβαίνω πάντα τι λέτε. Όταν όμως ζωγραφίζεται προσέχω κάθε λεπτομέρεια.😍☺

[@AshaJacobb]

😊

[@manuelaheinzmann4578]

oh schade müsste deutscher untertitel haben

[@joansieverding7312]

Manuela Heimzmann was er hauptsächlich sagt...ist das ausser bestimmten technieken wie den Farben zu beherschen und das Talent zu haben etwas gut zeichnen zu können....das wichtigste Talent zum malen seiner Meinung nach ist......richting hinschauen!!! Nicht das malen wie man denkt das es ausschauen sollte...aber richtig hinschauen alsob man es noch nie gesehen hat...und die Farben, Struktur usw richtig betrachten und definieren. Er erklärt dies anhand von Beispielen...aber das ist was er hauptsächlich damit ausdrückt.

[@selmawrightson6949]

Could you take a painting and you panted and explain this better

[@ExploreAcrylics]

I can certainly try!
