Why is Noone taking about the tooth earrings, they're adorable 🧚🏼♀️🌫️
thank you so much!!
yes!!
I thought you meant her tooth was pierced I was trying to find it 😂
@@Hicassiejean LOL
@@Hicassiejean you must be an imaginative person lol
the struggle while squeezing out the last drops of the white paint is me
Can you make a video of tips for self taught artists that just can't attend art class but are obsessed with art. It would be helpful for many of us :)
i can try my best!
Yea that would be a great idea! I'm a self taught artist
@@n3rdboink could you please suggest how to learn color like you did in the sink ap piece??
I would start with following artists that you like. Then find things that you like from their work. Whether its color, shading, line or depht. Then just simply figure out how to incorporate that into your own work. You can watch tutorials or just simply the artist's process if you can't figure out how to replicate that :)
proko, sinix (i think thats their name) and marco bucci on youtube all have amazing tutorials about art techniques, plus line of action and i think draw a box are websites that teach alot
1. Don’t water down your paint as it can make it streaky, instead to want a creamy consistency
2. Use it a dry brush to blend your wet paint but make sure to wipe the brush off each time
3. Use a little blue for the whites of the eyes/ mix each primary color with white
Lol this comment is more so for me than anyone else, I need to summarize your points to make sure I got it and I’m always rewatching your videos
kinda unrelated but you look so pretty!!
thank you so much 💜
I LOVE how you talk about cheaper art supplies because when I watch other people with the most expensive supplies it is so intimidating for me😅thank you for your frankness love your videos
My paint is from Walmart too and it’s 50 cents each 😳
@@mcdi517 I know exactly which paint you mean I LOVE THEM
Not gonna lie
My acrylic paints are from Walmart too lmao
Same with my brushes
It's soo good 😮😮😮😮😮😊
I just started painting again and I’ve been doing greyscale portraits. I recommend this if you’re wanting to practice shadows and highlights! Full color is a bit more complicated, so the greyscale is a great way to practice since it simplifies things 😇😇😇
Thank you for the tip! It makes all the sense in the world!!
Who noticed her tooth earrings, they are adorable :) loved the vid
I feel like this video was perfect for me cuz I hate acrylic paint😭😂
Important!! Do NOT dump your dirty painting water outside, PLEASE! Acrylic is basically plastic soooo not good for the environment.
Taking breaks is essential but sometimes I just forget or give up on my painting. Maybe set a timer or listen to some music for a certain amount of time then force yourself to go back and keep going.
I find it important to never force myself to paint or draw as it often leaves me disliking it for a while. If you do it when you’re inspired and motivated then you will get much better results even if it means taking a few days or even months inbetween paintings /drawings.
Thank you for recommending cheap products! Some artists make you feel like you need to buy the expensive ones they endorse to make good art.
i really needed this bc acrylic is the only paint I have
I've been trying my best recently to start using more saturated colours since I'm so used to drawing realism. This video is definitely a sign for me to keep going
For the primary color, I suggest you to use Magenta instead of red and cyan instead of that darker blue.
To achieve red, add a bit yellow to Magenta :D its change everything
And spécial tips for back : burnt omber and phatlo blue make wonder
I started taking up art again, so I’m pushing myself to learn acrylic, water color and oil based paints. Although I don’t have a lot of perspective or anatomy drawing experience, I keep winging it. My learning process is different due to my dyscalculia (like dyslexia, but with math and other weird stuff).
Watching this gave me more confidence in painting with acrylic, thank you.
I draw all the time but I haven't painted since I was a kid and I'm trying to get into it, this was really helpful thank you!
Yess! I love this vid. One tip that helped me make my paintings pop: use a cool colored undertone for the shadows and a warm colored undertone for the highlights. Or vice versa. This creates awesome contrast and makes it look realistic.
Everything you said about how watching other ppl gives you drive is literally spot on cause it’s 3am but I can’t wait to paint when I get off work tmo 😭 at first I was just painting but now I love art and I wanna get a deeper understanding of it
This was actually very helpful, I’ve always struggled with getting into painting because I suck at it
You are not preachy, everything you said was so helpful and i really love how you encourage individual thinking/creativity. Your videos are gold for myself just trying to learn art at home late in life
Love how you describe your process. Beautiful work!
this is perfect timing bc we’re supposed to be doing an acrylic painting in my art class next week
I've recently shifted from oils to acrylics and am about to try out a portrait tmrw. if im being honest, i usually skip thru youtube videos til i see what i need but i couldn't help but watch your entire video. your narration, your down to earth way of talking.. how you reassure that people needa find their own styles and groove, love it all. you have a new subscriber 💗💗
This is such an amazing video! I consider myself a fairly experience artist, I can manage complex gradients but I have a more abstract style. Recently, I’ve decided to branch out to painting faces but I thought I could only do it with oil paints. Seeing how amazing your art is and all the tips in this video has really inspired me to use my acrylic to paint a face, so thank you
Thanks for all the tips and techniques 😀🌸🌸💕
I’ve been so nervous to try painting a portrait in acrylic, I’m so used to just digital painting,, But this video really makes me feel more at ease about giving it a try, so thank you!!
This was SUPER helpful, I would love it if you did more of this
omg yes, finally someone who uses walmart/cheap paints and brushes like me and paint good! most of the art videos i’ve seen literally use the most expensive brands.
Lots of really good tips here. The thinking ahead about mixing paint so you don't run out is such good advice.
The fact I was looking for a tutorial today! Starting to paint tomorrow :)
this is the best demonstration of mixing skin tones I've ever seen thank youuuuuu
I just started painting with acrylics and this was so helpful
I admire you so much, thanks for this💗
Love your vid. In mins, you just helped me out with a work competition. Thanks a mil!
It was honestly so amazing to hear you take time to say using cheap objects are okay 🥰 really motivated me as I got some cheap canvas lately and they excite me!
I got oil paints gifted to me a long time ago and I felt I was wasting them and wanted to learn how to paint better 😂 and having more fun learning this time around
I'm currently doing my alevels in art, your videos are helping me so much. Your tips are great, your work inspires me and i can relate to many of your struggles and opinions cause i'm in a similar situation. Sometimes I find it hard to get inspired by all those professional and extremely experienced artists who always have the perfect expensive supplies and somehow so much time and never get stressed. You show me that you can make incredible art without all of that. Thank you so much, your art is amazing!
Thanks so much! This is very helpful!
And it turned out incredibly!!
for this summer you have been the person that i like watching you help me a lot you make me happy and give me ideas
Ahhh I learn so much from your videoss! You are sooo talented and I love your personality! I think it's cool how you include random little stories from your life or as you like to call it "rants" (whether it's art related or not)❤️ .....it's also one of the reasons I love Ashley's videos sm✨
I haven’t painted in like a year and I was so intimidated but watching this video made me so excited to paint
I really like your vibe! It's really comforting and soothing, please make more draw and talk videos❤️
Love Your Method and Eclectic Approach...
Also Love the Streak in Your Hair, Sweetie!!!
You ARE My Favorite "Tuber"!!!
ive tried acrylic painting in the past and its never been my favorite but recently i bought some new paint and canvases to give it another shot. this video is the perfect thing for me so thank you!
You did a really good job! Thanks for all your tips!
Aaaah, Karina!! This video was so helpful!! Coincidentally, I was working on an acrylic portrait a few days ago; I hated the outcome! But seeing your video I learned a lotta tips and can't wait to use 'em! ALSO, I LOVE YOUR PIECE!! Especially the way you blended the cheeks and painted the hair!! 💖💖💖
Oh my goodness this was refreshing to watch, beautiful & fluid tutorial, plus your energy is golden! 🌙💋✨

i recently got acrylic paints for christmas and this video made me even more excited to use them! also your painting came out absolutely beautiful 👏💕
You said everything in this one video that I needed to hear for the past few months ❤ thank you so much, you were a really big help
Your painting came out beautiful and I love the tips in the video. I recently got back into art, but haven't taken a proper class in years. I did two portraits and was working on a third, but got caught up in mixing accurate skin tones. Thank you so much!
Girl you are too cute & seem so sweet. Thank you for the advice ☺️
Girl you near to 50k hell yeah my gal getting famous

Ahhhh this is so helpful! I just got acrylics after only using colored pencil and really needed an introduction lol
I just came across this vid and, omg you are like an art therapist
You’re so inspiring thank you

This is one of the artists I can relate to. The canvas panel and cheap brushes 👌😌
I've been drawing with graphite and colored pencils for almost 3 years now. I want to expand to paint so this was really helpful!!! I used to feel a bit anxious because I don't have ( and can't afford ) the more expensive paint, brushes, etc. Thanks for that also lol
Loved this totally! ❤ This turned out so gorgeous! 😍
You’re so cool, I love the energy ♥️♥️
This video taught and inspired me more than my art teacher at school ever has
I love this style😍 can’t wait to try it :)

This was very helpful thank you!!
Your so beautiful! Girl , i love your style!
HEHE my face lit up when you said you use the Daler and Rowney!!!
That’s what I have, as a beginner 😊
I love your art!!!
Helpful and so satisfying to watch! :)
Thank you for this free therapy
Nice work, love your painting!
this painting turned out so great!! and i love how chill your videos are :)
I’m really bad at blending my colours and making them match so watching you sorta do it on the canvas was helpful and I’m going to try it
i love that u love ashley shes such an icon
The painting turned out incredible! 😍😍
Thank you for this in depth video!
I have been using acrylics for a few years now but my roots are pencils. So I've always been doing portraits in greyish tones. 🤣
Especially the light wash at the beginning is such good advice!
