  • In this video, I’ll be showing you how to paint a smoky, moody background in two different ways. This is a great technique for beginners and up!
    Verbal instruction in this painting video!! You guys have asked for it, and who am I to deny you? I'll walk you through two different backgrounds, step-by-step.
    I’m painting on a 12x16 stretched canvas, but you can paint on any type and size of canvas you like.
    The brushes I use are:
    • A 1 inch flat brush in the first segment
    • A 3/4 inch natural hair round brush in the second segment
    I’m using Liquitex Basics paints in the following colors:
    • Titanium White
    • Mars Black
    • Burnt Umber
    But feel free to experiment with your colors!

    This is the best artist I’ve seen teaching the process. Excellent communication on exactly how she’s using the brush and picking up the colors. Also how she blends it. So grateful I came across you. My first time seeing you. I’m subscribing for more educational videos. Thank you
