    Do what your artist in-stink says. Love this portrait! For anyone who hates acrylics, I recommend wooden panels and paint on them. Much more smoother and easily framed.

    This turned out so well!! You did such an incredible job, I love all the colour variation wow
    Acrylic paint is one of those mediums that I pick up once or twice a year thinking it’ll be fun, but it like. Never is for me lol. I think I just can’t handle the stress of my paint even potentially drying up on my palette. But I’ve learned to love oils, somewhat under duress (I took two semesters of life painting classes where oils were a requirement) and I think my go-to surface for oils is actually stone paper. It’s so cheap and you don’t have to gesso it, and the paint moves really well. I’ve been oil painting roughly once a week for a year and a half, and I still haven’t used solvents at all.
    Still you can do some great work with acrylics and I love that it works for other artists, even if it doesn’t for me!!

    Ngl I had never even heard of Chappel Roan before but I had clicked on your video because I like them but also because I saw something on FB about her the day before. I didn’t read it because I had no idea who the heck she is. I feel like I don’t keep up with what’s trendy but I listened to her song Pink Pony Club after watching your video and now I’m obsessed. I love her album and I’m like where the heck has this girl been? lol

    Acrylics on paper and on wood is so wonderful. ❤
    I always hated acrylics on canvas it isn’t the same even with an underpainting. I do recommend give it a try too even on a small piece of paper.

  • @kierusekai
    @kierusekai Před 27 dny

    I definitely know what you mean about not being able to get acrylic paint to move when you're trying for details with small brushes. I think 2 things (in combination, even) can solve that problem. 1) the actual paint you're using - it could help to go for artist quality acrylics, and even better, maybe invest in a couple of soft body or even fluid/high flow acrylics. Like, just grab a white and a black, for example. 2) acrylic mediums! imo mediums are magical and paint's best friend. You would want to get something that doesn't cut down on the opacity too much though, which is a little hard to achieve even for mediums, but if you go with something along the lines of a pouring medium, that lowers the viscosity and keeps the opacity reasonably well. What I use personally is a mix of fluid matte medium and gloss color pouring medium (which I like cuz it is more satin and knocks back the glossiness acrylics can have). I could go on, but...
    Also, my qualifications to be giving this advice are that I worked at Blick for 4 years, so I like to think I have a little expertise when it comes to art materials. Also, I have been painting in primarily acrylics the past several years, since I don't have a good space to use oils in, so if I wanted to paint on canvas, I had to make acrylics work for me, even though I definitely started off absolutely hating them!
    Ack, I also wanted to mention that for small details, maybe get a really small liner brush? That can really help with pulling lines, when used instead of a round brush or a spotter.
    I'll stop giving unsolicited advice rn again, sorry 😅 just want to help solve your promble! let me know if you would like specific product recs, btw. And it goes without saying, of course, I loved the video, especially how you go into details regarding the paints and techniques! Okay, bye 🙂

  • @roseodonovan6979

    I've always loathed acrylics, but this video made me realize what I dislike about them probably has more to do with cheap canvases (i.e., weird grid texture, hard to blend, plastic looking, etc.). Had a hunch that a matte medium would help me enjoy them but never wanted to invest. That may not be necessary on paper though! I really like the effect you achieved.

    OMG this is so lovely! You said you're struggling with details and small strokes; I noticed you put a lot of pressure on your brushes even for tiny details. If you go a bit slower, and use less pressure, it might help!
