- The key to blending acrylic paint on canvas is to water down the paint to a creamy consistency and then use multiple dry wash brushes to smooth out the brushstrokes. This acrylic paint blending tutorial demonstrates and explains the complete process in detail.

Good tip for beginners
Unless you are mixing up large cups of paint suggest to new painters to use small plastic cups
Hey Greg, just wanted to tell you THANKS for the recommendation for the rechargeable airbrush sprayer. TEMU has a nice green one for 21$!
I didn't even realize such a critter even existed!---No noisy air compressor nor aggravating lengthy hose to work around.
A huge bonus to my work! Thanks Tons!🤠👍
(edit: Wouldn't mind seeing you do a tutorial on how you mix your non airbrush acrylic paint for different artistic effects)

Total newbie here...i clearly do not have enough brushes! STUNNING!
Little tip, cheap makeup brushes are Amazing for blending. The foundation ones work great.
Thank you for this! @@bostonbutterfly4473
I was not expecting him to get to 5 brushes 😂
I kept wondering when you were going to stop blending already but every time you did it got better and better. Thank you for that beautiful lesson 🥰✌️
Thank you for this tutorial as I find this the hardest to do without muddying the colours.👍🏻
You treated my OCD with kindness. As I watched the video I kept thinking to myself, “Okay I still see a harsh demarcation line between the yellow and what has become orange. Blend a little more here.” And it’s as we were communicating across space and time, because there you went! Absolutely beautiful! Probably not much of a compliment coming from me as I’m not even an artist. But my eyes are happy. 😂 Thank you, thank you!
The music is fantastic and so is the technique! Thank you for the training!
Thank you for th tutorial. It was plain and simple to follow.
So simple but so stunning what looks just like a big beautiful ball and sunshine is absolutely hypnotic!
You are memorizing my thoughts as I watch your video on this topic. Absolutely beautiful and inspiring. Thank you
All the hard work you put into this piece really shows🎉
I have to try this tomorrow. Simply beautiful. Stunning. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful. Great job.
You are an amazing artist and for me a great teacher! Thank you!!!
Great tutorial. This came out amazing. Can't wait to try.
Anyone ever thought of using what's called a beauty blender sponge in situations like this? I've found that they can cut the blending time way down. I am still working on the technique but it seems promising.
Yes, they work well!
I need to try to do this on a significantly smaller scale.
Thank you for sharing with us🙏🏼
Never mind about the brush dear 😅. I realise now I'd never been using enough paint and it was too dry to get that perfect effect ❤This is very very helpful, many thanks. What type of brush is that?
Glad that it helped and I added the paint with a mop brush and blended it all out with dry wash brushes
You do it so effortless thank you for sharing.
Thanks for this great tutorial!!! ❤
Beautiful ❤ i am going to try this. 👍 Thank you for the video 🙏
Wowwww, it turned so smooth. It teaches patience ❤
It looks so soothing...
Thank you. This is exactly what i have been looking for

Super 👍🏽 thanks for you tuto
AMAZING, THANK YOU FROM HEART
Thank you - now I know what to do!!
Just so beautiful and amazing to watch you. 😊
Great job ❤
I'm surprised by how much water is used. Word on the street is that too much water may affect the paint binding, so I have always mixed some medium plus water (I do see your opinion in the video that the amount of water you use doesn't affect the binding).
Exactly. What is the problem to people to just use medium?
That anti-water lie came from some CZcams video some lady made. She blocked all comments so that people can’t correct her. You can literally use acrylic as a watercolor and the paint will work just fine. You can thin, glaze etc acrylics using water only and it will be JUST FINE
That's very interesting, thanks!@@afanaobeba7876
Too much water will affect the integrity of the paint though😢
...and so we go around in little circles...
❤ magnifique !!! se fond de couleur, j'adore , merci pour cette démonstration

Hi Mr Lowman 😊 only just seen your really good blending video , an area I struggle with being a newbie painter . Do you have a similar tutorial showing the blending technique , but using a larger canvas , say 40 x 50 cms and how to keep the paint wet on a larger canvas . It's just that it is easier for me to see on a larger canvas , but can not keep the paint wet . Thanks very much 😊
hi there, this one covers blending on a large canvas: czcams.com/video/oec7O58RMl4/video.htmlsi=Aq-42H-9GbEf_K_u

Bravo 💖👏👏👏
wonderful video! thank you so very much! but why would someone get mad because you used a towel?
Beautiful ❤️ best wishes from your new subscriber
Великолепно!!! 👍
Very soothing 👍🏻
beautiful! how is it that the wash brush does not spread the color out of shape?
Very nice and beautiful and well done. In my painting, the sun is about half an inch, how i blend the sun that looks better? or how i can blend a small area in a painting? Thanks.
To blend small you can use a smaller brush like a round or filbert, get the bristles just wet enough to break up the paint, do circles on the color changes, and continuously wipe the bristles off when they fill w/ paint. Skip the last step and don't go over the area with a dry brush to avoid smearing/streaking. You can blend pretty much anything doing this, even smooth skin tones - czcams.com/video/tD3XEGaQwwg/video.html
❤ merci
Bellooo marisa😊
WoW, Colors and Art are So Very Beautiful and Fantastic Art, Thanks for Sharing. 🙏 🙏🙏😋😍🤩🤩👌👌👌🧡🧡🧡💫💫💫
Some good info. Were the acrylics or canvas pre coated or mixed with titanium white paint? I know it can kill the vibrancy in colors but have also learned without it colors can also lose some brightness when dried
No titanium white was added, just primary yellow + red
Always best in silent movies
How do you know when you used to much water? I'm guessing the quality of the paint helps because they probably have better binding than the cheaper ones...idk. I tried painting couple years ago and my pictures kept cracking
Your paint should never crack, even after many years - applying it too thick or using a cheap brand is usually what causes that. A good paint will even allow for watered-down glazes and washes without cracking/peeling. You may want to try one of the paints below and shoot for a creamy consistency like shown in the video:
Liquitex - amzn.to/3UX6XVz
Winsor & Newton - amzn.to/3Telf2P
Golden - amzn.to/3UW5HC4
@@GregLowmanArt thank you for the advice I appreciate that
❤️ My basic technical problem is the blending technical procedure If you use a little bit of linseed oil will that help instead of waty? I've just subscribed , actually I've been working with watercolors Thanks for the video ✅
Water is going to be best. If your paint is drying too quickly, you can add some slow-dri amzn.to/3GhL5gc to it, but linseed oil is used with oil paints & will not help you here.

Excellent job, but where do you get the dry wash brushes to do this dry blending work?. FIVE brushes can be very costly, right?
They're ~$1-$2 each so not bad:
amzn.to/45HNPhf or amzn.to/3xk1sn1
I get them at lowes or home depot pretty cheap. For dry blending brushes. About $3.50 a piece.

Hello Professor 🙋🏻♂️why did paint the orange color before starting? Do we have to paint the same color before starting any acrylic painting? Can I use another cool colors?
Not speaking for the professor. But I would tell you its art. Experiment. There are no rules. What works for you
No, you can use many other colors - doesn't have to be orange
