  • Follow along as I paint a tribute to all of the essential workers who kept us safe during the pandemic of 2020. This is for all of the doctors, nurses, hospital staff, fire, POLICE, EMS, restaurant and grocery store workers, truckers and everyone else who gets up and does their job while risking getting sick. The world is starting to recover, but for many, it's been business as usual. Thank you!
    Like this video? Want to buy me a coffee or a new tube of paint... or generally just support the channel?
    Now you can and it would be most appreciated. Once I reach my $1,000 goal, I'll be buying a second camera to record my mixing palette since it's the number one request I get. Cheers! www.buymeacoffee.com/steveatk...

    Love, love, love your museum putty idea for attaching the canvas -- how awesome! Actually I picked up a lot of great painting tips from you in this (definitely coming back for more). This is probably my favorite painting of the month -- colors, content, and the salute to essential workers! With appreciation ❤️

      Hi Maureen, it's the least I could do. I get to stay in the relative safely of my studio bubble and don't go out much cuz my 85-year-old father-in-law lives with us, so we're very careful to keep him safe. I'm glad you find my videos helpful, thanks for watching!!

    Great video Steve. The painting is gorgeous and what a tremendous gesture. I do something similar to you to stick my panel on my board but I use Blu Tack. It may not be as strong as museum putty though.

    • @SteveAtkinsonFineArt
      @SteveAtkinsonFineArt  Před 3 lety +1

      Basically the Blu Tack is the same as the Museum Putty, just a name brand thing. You haven't had any problems with it falling off have you? Thanks for watching Steve!

    Hi Steve... another beautiful piece and for a good cause. I had an opportunity to do a similar thing back in April when a project came up from the UK. A teacher was looking to have his class done in individual caricatures as a gift because they were not going to be able to be present in their classes and graduate because of their lock down. I told him that I would do the project but instead of paying me, to donate the amount to a local charity, which at the time was the NHS, which is the health care service in his country. It's a good feeling to help when you can. I think though, you raised a bit more financially then I did.

    • @SteveAtkinsonFineArt
      @SteveAtkinsonFineArt  Před 3 lety
