Mixed Media Portrait Technique

- Hello Everyone!
Today is my Birthday! Perfect time to use some pastel cake frosting colors on this mixed media portrait. I am trying to be more intuitive with my techniques and trying to trust the process more. So, I start out with an abstract background using a variety of tools and colors that I really enjoy but am unaccustomed to using. Then because of the "Figure it out as I go" method that I am employing, I sort of fumble my way through the rest of the painting.
Background colors:
Golden Heavy Body Acrylics - Teal, Neutral Gray
Liquitex Basics - Bright Aqua Green, Rose Pink, Unbleached Titanium
Amsterdam - Titanium White
Winsor & Newton - Light Violet, Powder Blue
Master's Touch - Sea Foam Green, Light Coral, Indian Yellow, Gray Blue
Liquitex Heavy Body - Cadmium Orange, Light Pink
Artist's Loft - Turquoise (Acrylic Ink)
Tools:
4 inch Rubber Brayer
Squeegee
Silicone Brush
Palette Knife
Water Spray Bottle
Paper Towels
Blow Dryer
Misc:
Sakura Solid Paint Markers
Posca Markers
Montana Water-Based Spray Paint
Liquitex Spray Paint

Wow that is gorgeous. I loved the blue lips but then really loved her lighter lips. So lovely. Happy belated birthday. 🎉

I LOVE your videos and your art. Thanks so much for sharing your process. It’s truly inspiring. I understand creating content is not easy but I hope you can continue to shine your light into the world. ❤
Happy belated birthday to you Lydia. I love mixed media art and not sure how I found you but so glad I did! Your work is stunning!
Your style is right up my alley. Loved this video
Thank you!!!
Lydia, you are an amazing artist. I am so glad I found your channel. She is beautiful.
Hi Lydia, you haven't been showing up in my feed recently. Glad I searched and found this today. Super background. I love the finished painting. That hair though, Mmmm. I didn't notice any fumbling either.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!! Been pretty busy but l ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR VIDEOS!! I paint intuitively so I understand what you are saying …as always …GREAT WORK!!!
just found your channel.. LOVE the ARTwork.. thanks for the tips might try some os these in my next art project.. keep up the great work.. bye
❤Really Works! Still edgy, which I love.😊
I love seeing you work through your process and the 'uglyduckling/hot-mess stage" thank you for showing your process.
😍🤩
Really like them pastels with earth tone accents! Well done… BD
Thank you BD!
Always enjoy watching you and listening to your process. Thank you. :)
The piece is 👌🏻🎨💜, great mood, colours work well with design to create it. I am always surprised how the grungy backgrounds help set the tone of the painting!! I do always keep on working on a painting, especially when it doesn't feel right until it does😅 even if it goes where I didn't initially expect it to😁. Hehehe, even the watercolour, often they don't look like watercolour anymore due to addition of gouche and marker, but it works....
Kinda retro 70’s feeling, awesome
Love it ❤ so beautiful
So glad I found your page, this is beautiful and exactly how I would like to paint
She is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! 😍💜
Happy birthday Lydia ❤.

Not many superlatives left to say regarding your amazing artworks Lydia.....
I am learning so so much from your down to earth informative breakdown of what you put together and how & what materials & equipment used.
Fantastic experience watching you.

Great stuff….so full of color… I was liking the blue lips but you could make them any color and it would still work for me!
Love it!

Fabulous piece Lydia - I could watch you all day and you are so inspiring - I love it each time you bring out a new video - keep 'em coming😊
Ok you being an Aquarius is so fitting 😆 so quirky. Love your work ❤
Thank you! The Waterbearer I am!😁❤
Your work is really beautiful 👌👌👌
Thank you!!!❤
Happy Birthday! The video came out well, different color scheme than usual… you’ve never been a pastel girl! It’s funny, it’s kind of like a child growing and changing and having those messy stages where they’re evolving… like your painting😁
So true! Thanks mom! I never had messy stages when I was growing up!😉😂
Absolutely beautiful and always enjoy staring my day out with one of your beautiful tutorial videos.♥️
It's really cool to see your painting come to life and the reference image! Beautiful painting!
Your choices are always on point! From the inspiration piece to your final product is just night & day different in the best ways!!! Love the process!!
Thank you Stephanie! It is like night and day!😁
Is that the 18th. not sure as i think im a day ahead of you. that is also my partners birthday. Explains your crazy fun self. I love Aquarians, Happy birthday. I hope you got spoilt.
Happy belated Birthday Lydia! Great video. I did like the blue lips, but of course the violet/grey lips
Look great too. Thanks for continuing these videos. We love you too.
Happy birthday! Inspiring
Thank you!❤
Amazing work as always. Always super happy when you post a video! Thanks!
Absolutely gorgeous. Possibly my favourite of yours ❤
I love your paintings! Thank you for sharing your know how.
always wonderful to watch you paint
Lydia, I watched your video. Your's is the best example of that I've seen in a while. I loved the multiple layering of templets. I wish you might explain what type of sprayes you use.
Happy birthday!! I just love your style and always learn something new…pushing and pulling paint…performing acrylic surgeries until the body part is satisfying, haha. Thanks again for sharing your amazing gifts of art and humour 😊
Happy Birthday Lydia!!! Today is also my grandsons 21st birthday. I love your work, and truly enjoy watching you! 🎂🎊🎈
Thank you! And Happy 21st Birthday to your grandson!🎉😃
Did you ever had that phase, when you have so much fun by just "smiering" and working with colors and tools, you over do the work or is there not such thing like over worked?
I really like that there is a kind of cold but also warms to this painting is. It makes me feel like the time right between winter and spring, like last days of winter. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I love it.
Thank you! I think you can over work a painting, but usually for me it has more to do with over thinking. If I'm having a good time, I don't think at all!😃
You are really an inspiration for me , really love your work and im thinking to become a patreon soon 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻😘
Thank you so much!❤😊
Brilliant, as always. Happy Birthday 🎉🎈🎁🎂🍾🥂🍹🖌
Wow! I love everything you did here.
Hi Lydia beautiful i LOV the pastels as i read its your birthday Happy 🎉 from 1 massachusetts girl t o another
Im so inspired with your talent !
🩵🌞
Thank you so much!!! Another Mass-girl!❤
Love the process
Hi Lydia, I really enjoyed watching your process and really liked the outcome. Please can you let me know if you are painting this on paper or canvas board or box canvas. If it's paper which paper would you recommend for mixed media ? Thank you.
I love the pastel tones and hues! What acrylic brand are you using for this art piece?
Thank you! I'm using a mixture of mainly Golden, Liquitex and Master's Choice.
Did you take the Milan class? I think that’s what your style reminds me of.
I've been asked that before, but no, I never took their Mastery course. 😊
@@lydiabroderick867 oh good! I am glad you found your own style ♥️
I've never ever been able to paint faces or anything close to realism. It might be the shadowing and placement. Any advice?!
Have you ever tried gel printing?
Yes I have.😊
I love it so much!
And your work is always just glorious!
@@marythomas5656 Thank you!❤
Hi Lydia- I’ve been paying the $5 monthly Patrion but I’m locked out and can’t send you a message through Patrion.
