How to make really big dots in your painting

In this video Dutch Dot Art artist Tessa Smits www.tessasmits.com shows you how to make really big dots. What kind of paint mix does she use, do you need really big brushes? (spoiler alert 'no' ;-) and how do you keep the big dots round?

Thank you for the tip on how to make rounded dots. As for the size of the dots. we have available tools in the U.S. for that including nail-dotting tools( for really small dots) up to using cut-up dowels, bottle caps, saucers, etc. Anything round if you wish.

What is the name of the medium that you use? How do you spell it? And where do you buy it from? And thank you so so much for your great help x

Hi, I love this & really wanna try it asap! Just one question, is it absolutely necessary to use a paint medium mixed with the paint? Or can I just use acrylic paint by itself? I'm super new to all this, but I really wanna get started!

Hi Lauren, sorry for the late response, didn't see this earlier, but yes you need the medium otherwise the paint will be to thick to make nice dots

Hello Tessa, can I also use the Amsterdam glanzend ?

[@TessaSmits]

Hi Caroline, I don't know that kind of paint, but give it a try I use all kinds of different acrylic paints.
