You Can't Ruin a Painting! / Art with Adele

HOW TO COMPOSE YOUR ABSTRACT PAINTING / Aiming for perfection and being afraid of making a wrong decision actually get in the way of creating successful paintings. Perfection doesn’t exist. It's that simple. So I changed my mindset from aiming for perfection to seeing a painting as having a personality. I explain how that works in this week's video.

Thank you so much dearest Adele for sharing your beautiful talent with us. You are an amazing tutor. Please take care. Love😉💕

[@bonniepoirier4805]

I love the way you work. Your calmness is so inviting. I sometimes get so caught up in that desired perfection that I block (and stop) all my own inner creativity and that inner critic totally takes over. Your weekly videos have helped me so much to breathe, calm and relax. Thank you so, so much for taking the time to create these videos.

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Thank you so much Bonnie. I think trying to tame our inner critic is one of the hardest things. With practice you can really make headway. Good luck. 🌸

[@jadetobin]

I'm the same :/ I get into something feeling all excited, but then I start ripping it apart in my head and don't always finish. Trying to work on it....but it if definitely not easy :/ These videos are great though! :)

[@judithcarr7845]

Adele, you are a wonderful teacher. I learn so much from your videos and I have watched some over a few times and get something new each time. Thank your so much for sharing your talent and encouragement.

[@ellenvd5543]

Thanks very much for your videos Adele! I just saw your channel…...It gives me a lot of ideas! I started with abstract acrylic about year ago, after years of watercolor. And i am still have to get used to it :) Thanks again for the inspiration!

[@hobbypotter]

I have been enjoying your videos for about a week now! I love your energy and insight ...something about your work just makes me smile!

[@shirleysavage9858]

Really inspiring! Thank you

[@grozdavranic6972]

Thank you Adele..Love what you do...

[@meganmoses4314]

Adele this is brilliant, this method you showed just opened up my eyes so much - lately i have been struggling with figuring out placement of shapes/colour fields, and this video was so valuable!! Thank you so much, you are a great teacher, skilful, enthusiastic, and very good explanations. Many thanks!! Megan

[@soulsearcher4truth303]

Very insightful. I am moving further into abstract painting as I love it so much. Being able to use marks, shapes, colour, and pattern just as they are is such a relief from representational art. Can’t wait to start. Also you have helped me in how I want to create my own blog and video tutorials.

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Hi Michele, abstract painting is so much fun. Enjoy. 🌸

[@Valerie-pk9tn]

Hi Adele, I love your videos, thanks for combatting my inner critic! I was wondering what songs you use in these videos, and what are your go-to songs or playlists to paint to?

[@pjlewisful]

cool!!!! Do you varnish or add a protective finish to your paint/collage works?

[@franceselizabethvanvelzen8555]

hi Adele, thanks for the inspiring videos. Can you please tell me what glue you use for collage on your acrylic paintings? Thanks so much. Kind regards Frances in West of Ireland.

[@BirdieB12]

@AdeleSypesteyn After arranging the pieces what is the next step? Do you paste them on there with matte medium or gesso. I loved this video

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Leah, yes, once I decide where I want them I attach them with either matte or gloss medium.

[@markpalumbo6394]

Love Love Love your Art and you ..... Question.... When your covering colors or an area are you using white paint and or with any medium... I have watched your videos many times... Thank you 🙏

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

When I cover an area, it first depends if I want to cover it up completely or just a little. Almost all the time I add acrylic medium to my paints. 🌸

[@gailflynn443]

Even though I signed up with a subscription, I don’t get your Saturday morning videos.

[@markpalumbo6394]

Hi .... What brand of paint is your go to Are you using Opaque paints ? Love your Inspiring and insightful videos thanks for being transparent and sharing the love of art

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

I use only Golden paints because I love the quality and I can rely on what they will do. They come in many forms and I use them all, fluid, open, and the heavy body. 🌸

[@deelynn8611]

What if your whole painting is too dark, and muddy from too many colors, too many brush strokes the same size? Do I put white on it let it dry and start over?

[@TwobOne_1]

Adele - where do you get your scrap pieces? Past projects? Magazines? PS: LOVE your work! INSPIRED by your creativity!

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Hi Ana, thank you so much for your kind words. As for all my scrap pieces, they are lots of papers I make when I don’t have lots of time but want to create something. I have them on all different kinds of paper in all different colors. 🌸

[@drnaquin]

Adele, what color is the blue and cream?

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

Donna, every color I create is mixed from several colors. Sometimes I use straight black or white but that is all.

[@drnaquin]

@@AdeleSypesteynStudio I love it! It is a soft, light blue. I've looked and looked and was unable to match it. Thanks for taking a moment to reply!

[@AdeleSypesteynStudio]

I would try ultramarine with white and a dash of orange.

[@Anadiaz-br1jr]

Do you prepare your black and white papers?
