is recognized for her exceptional balance of color and light. She intertwines the bold strokes of thick impasto with softly layered translucent washes. The use of natural stucco and the combination of multiple layers of different media present the viewer with a three dimensional work. The Ginger Cook style of painting is both fresh and innovative.
She delights the viewers with her for unique painting style and mastery of color and is held in high esteem by many major manufactures of fine art acrylic paint in the world.
In 1997, she received 4-winning first place awards and the overall Grand Prize win of Liquitex “Paint a Difference Competition", an open call to acrylic artist across the world to submit artwork that represented the best of Acrylic Painting. Liquitex subsequently featured her as a Master Acrylic Artist, with a show of her paintings at the National Academy of Design in New York City.
Utrecht acrylics paid her the complement of a full page ad featuring their paint and her artwork in Artist Magazine the following year.

WOOPS: 45 minutes in we had a one minute glitch due to bad weather during our live recording.
We lost audio and the video goes on fast forward for about one minute, then resumes it's normal sound and speed. It fortunately happened during painting a few of the tiny flowers os I think all and all it should be ok. Thanks, Ginger
Ginger Cook is Sherpa your daughter
here to comment just to say i love your videos
Vincent Van Gogh is my favorite of the old artist. I love this painting, and your showing of this. You are AMAZING Ginger. I love your art history, as well. I always liked listening to my art teachers explain the history of these old artist, almost as well as doing art. Thank you so much, Ginger and Jon. 😊😊😊
thanks Rhonda, for taking the time to write such a nice uplifting message. Glad you are enjoying the video too.
Ginger Cook 😊👍👍
I love this. You guys are so silly too, and I love listening to you talk while painting. You are a great teacher. I do your flower tutorials step by step mixing my paint just like you say, and my paintings look good. I can even draw when you show me how. Thanks.
Love the lesson. You make painting so much easier. Thanks Jon for zooming in during the lessons, it really helps.
Thanks so much. He does do a good job on the video, though we had storms last night and lost the feed a bunch of times
Love, love, LOVE van Gogh! Thank you!
Thank you so much Ginger Cook for sharing your teaching videos and the wonderful stories you share during. Its such a treat. You are amaizing
Awesome, glad you like the videos and the stories.
You are so funny - you never know when you are on live!!!!! So adorable xxx
Absolutely the best tutorial video I’ve watched in the 2 years I’ve been painting. Learned a lot by your demonstrations. Others call themselves tutorial videos, but really they are more “demonstrations”. Thanks
Love you Ginger and Jon. So right too many passwords. 🤗 Love you both and your paintings.
I know, glad you agree with me.... and they just keep getting longer too... Happy Holidays.
Hi Guys. I love Van Gogh. After painting his boots with you I want to paint a few more of his paintings. Thanks Jon and Ginger. CAN I PAINT THIS PAINTING ON A LARGER CANVAS ?
Well I finally got to this one. I love to listen to you and Jon talk and loved hearing more about Van Gogh. I just recently watch the animated movie Loving Vincent. I did this painting on an 8x10 to see how I liked it and now I think I am going to paint it again larger. I might try in on 24 x 36. Thanks for another fun lesson.
Hi Ginger, thank you very much for this tutorial! Vincent is my favourite artist and I love to learn to paint his paintings in acrylics! Vincent himself gave this original to his brother's baby as a gift of birth. Theo named his son also Vincent in order to honor his brother, and I think that made Vincent very happy. He felt, that those almond blossoms represent new life.
awesome, had not heard that story. Thanks for sharing.
I learn so much from you Ginger! From history and the always fascinating lives of the masters to color and technique! Everything I have learned on color mixing is invaluable! Thank you, this is stunning and one of my favorite paintings! Hi John!
thanks so much for the positive feedback. Art hugs from Tx/
You are a great teacher. I thank you so much.
You are very welcome
Thank you so much for your amazing tutorials! I especially love this one! You have taught me so much....God bless you for being so generous and sharing your knowledge !! 💗
Thanks, Happy New Year
My favourite !! Thank you Ginger ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Sarah. this would be beautiful painted really large.
Ohh! - What a wonderful surprise I had this morning when I saw you had chosen to paint the Almond Branches. I am a huge fan of Vincent's work and have read much about his life. This painting has been on my 'list to paint' for a while so to have this tutorial is awesome for me. I painted the Starry Night painting a while ago, following your tutorial ( I didn't think I had the skills to do it). It took me a while but I was pleased with it in the end, thanks to your great tuition. The whole thing was a great experience for me & I loved to hear you talk about Vincent's life, helping to inspire me while painting. Many many thanks again for everything. xxx
Thanks so much. We had some real challenges with bad weather when we recorded this live and even uploaded the video again. Glad you liked it.
Yes - I watched the first one but by the time I went to post a comment, you had uploaded the replacement. I have watched it twice already lol. Sorry to hear about your bad weather. Please keep safe. xxx
Ange Mac and
Love this. A favorite.
Thanks so much
Beautiful😍, Thank you again Ginger 😘
Thanks Nancy. We lost the feed about a minute around 45 minutes in, but it picks up fine after that. We had to reupload the video... Ahhh the challenges of recording live..
Love this painting!
My favorite so far!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!! I am going to do this one. Thank you!!!!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful painting with us!
So pleased you liked it. This is one of my favorites.
Thank you for this tutorial watching from qatar Doha . I did paint it and will send u a picture
You are an amazing storyteller, you told Vincent's story as if you heard it firsthand from a good friend of his. Thanks for a great show and painting;
thanks so much. I appreciate the positive feedback.
Love this and learning more about V.v.G! About split pea soup, I wasn't a fan as a child, then as an adult I discovered that I love it! Turns out it's a vegan version of split pea soup, that I love, especially because I can be in charge of the seasoning. So yummy!
Not for me I am afraid. but I know our taste buds change every 3 years so who knows maybe I would like it.
I really enjoyed this lesson. It was my first time watching you and I found it easy to follow and I learned a lot. You are a very good teacher. Thank you.
Soooooo!!!!!!Awesome!!!!!!!Love this!!!!!!
I looked this van Gogh painting up!! and I notice how much detail is in it!! it must have took him ages, its a brilliant piece I think, I look and study art and some of his stuff was truly AMAZING.
It is. He was truly a marvelous artist
Gorgeous, Ginger! Thank you for laying out the simple palette for this. I have always wanted to try this and will give it a go this week now that I have some time off! ❤️
You are so welcome!
Ginger you crack me up your feelings on apps,bells and passwords had me laughing so hard I almost p'd myself ,great painting lesson I love this piece by Van Gogh thank you for brightening my day! :)
Thanks so much. I am so happy you enjoyed the tutorial. Some years ago I got in a Jury pool right before I was heading out of town for vacation. My daughter Cinnamon said; "Just tell them what you really think Mom and they will not pick you!" LOL
Baahahahahahaha , smart girl that Cinnamon!!! Love you both!!!
Thankyou so great! Love Van Gough!
Our pleasure!
I really ❤ it thank you so much for the beautiful lessons
You're welcome 😊 We have lots of Van Gogh tutorial on CZcams and in our art Academy. www.paintingwithginger.com
Love the teeshirt!!!!
Thanks Ginger for this painting you have given me such inspiration. Only started painting/playing about a month ago and find your explanations so easy to follow and common sense. I am still finding my way round your chanels and I have found Cinnamon's tutorials too - down to earth, and fun., Many thanks. Xtine
Thanks so much for the positive feedback.
This was great, love your show so much, and when you were talking about all the dag on password stuff, it for everything I was in shock when I saw you using black! BEAUTIFUL piece!
Its fun to break the rules once in awhile. But look how old that tube of black was. Its funny but Utrich is very good paint as it was not clumpy or think after 20 years or so.
This is so pretty. Im going to paint this on my outside garden wall!
YES AND YES I would love to see it.
This is beautiful. Thank you ginger
Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing this. This is one of my favorite paintings. Great video.
Thank you very much.
Hahahah... I loved the branch drawing technique, that'd take of for sure, loved it x
Thanks. People seem to have trouble drawing branches and once explained it is so simple.
This is beautiful! I didn't know Cinnamon is your daughter! I love all of your lovely lessons and hers too, thank you for helping us learn! I didn't even know I could paint!
Yes she is and a lovely artist and daughter.
This is so sweet. It looks like a very easy painting as well. I love it.
It is a very easy painting. We would do a simple version of this when I taught painting evening painting parties at Merlot2Mastepiece. No one ever had a problem with it.
This painting is so pretty, thank you Ginger and Jon hugs

Very nice! Thank you❤️❤️
Our pleasure!
It looks gorgeous! wonderful! I'll do it again.😘
Cool, So nice to hear from you. Your painting are a bright spot in my day.
😍😍😍😍
Hi. Love the painting but can't read the paints used. Can you list them? Thanks. Cherry
I have an almond tree and it doesn't look like this. Vincent Van Gogh was a genius to be able to express his own view of things through painting like this. And so are you Ginger to be able to reproduce paintings from the old masters, and your own style rocks too.
Thanks so much. Just saw your comment and wanted to thanks for such nice positive feedback.
Hi Ginger, thanks for showing my "on-the-go" painting of oranges and cherries. Sorry I missed this live - for some reason I unsubscribed myself so I missed the bell twice! Anyway, per Facebook conversation, I look forward to your tips on packing a travel kit of painting materials.
You actually did not unsubscribe your self. CZcams just does that to people arbitrarily if they think a channel is not watched enough. Its very annoying for those of us who have CZcams channels because daily they take away perfectly fine subscribers while adding new ones.
Oh I so love this one ty you so much for sharing your gift . I am going to paint this one for a fundraiser for the children hospital in Boston mass wish me luck.
Good luck! I love how Ginger gives the tips on drawing here.
BecomingLight ty dear I am a little nervous
I think you will do great. What a wonderful thing to do.
I was wating along for this, thanks very ery much
Glad you liked that we choose to do this one.
I can't imagine anyone giving you a thumbs down.....or your daughter for that matter!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Patty, I don't understand it either when they can just tune into another channel
Hi Ginger. I really loved the background underpainting. I am thinking how I can apply it to other paintings. Just thinking about it as I like it so much. I am thinking it would be nice with yellow and orangey flowers or fruits. Love this one but branches are challenging to me. The Crocker movement may help. Very interesting how you did the dark blue branch first then filled in the green. Very pretty Ginger.
thanks Sharon, we did that on the Van Gogh Iris painting on our website too as he loved to outline things. LOL Have a super morning.
İ will trying thanks for job 👏
Have fun
Painting this one tomorrow! I already had it in my mind to do from a postcard image. Now I have a lesson to follow. How great is that? Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Loojs so easy!
Ginger, I am quite impressed with your work. Does one dilute the acrylic paint with a little bit of water ? I just want to know and have a great answer from you so that I can proceed. Thank you in advance for a response. Thank you so much 💓!
I like a damp brush but not a wet one. It depends on the brush you are using and the type of paint. A heavy body paint like Golden just needs a damp brush that has been wiped off on a towel to shape it. But if you want a thinner glaze you can use more water. I rinse my brush in water when changes colors that are complements.
@@gingercooklive I thank you so much for your reply. With such few words, you explained so much. Thank you and have wonderful holidays to come. Cheers Ginger!
wooooow Beautiful
Thank so much. I am so pleased you liked it.
This is awesome! Would you mind sharing what the brushes are? Is there an Amazon link?
Ginger if you did want to use red..what three shades of red would blend nicely
I have seen it with dark wine color around the edges like alizarin crimson and magenta with white towards the center. You can make a dark red by adding ultramarine blue to it too.
Hi Ginger, Where can I get a copy of this to print out? I don't see it on Pinterest. I absolutely love your shows and love how you teach.
I got it Ginger
Hi Ginger, You are awesome as always, your tutorials are amazing.! Thank you!
On the topic of your cataract surgery, are you having both eyes done for distance vision? I ask because my friend's eye doctor told her she could have one eye for distance and one eye for intermediate, so she won't need glasses for the computer, mobile device and shopping, its called "monovision" She will still need glasses for fine print and reading. Did your doctor give you that option? As an artist would you consider monovision? Just curious. Thank again for yoru wonderful work! All thumps up for me!!!
I just need reading glasses. they did offer me that option but it was another $3-4K an eye. NO kidding. and could not say it really worked all the time. You could spend that money and still need glasses so I just opted to continue with reading glasses and not spend another several thousand dollars as medicare paid for my eyes.
Hi! Love this tutorial.
BTW, what canvas do you recommend or any brands? Thanks. God bless.
I like Jerrys artarama Paramount...
@@gingercooklive Awww. Sad. Only Phoenix canvas available here in my place. Arteza and Mont Marte through online. 😪
You are so talented. What brand of acrylics do you use?
I use Matisse and Golden and Holbein, all heavy body acrylic professional paint.
I DID THISS ON SQUARE CANVAS !!
I bet it looks really nice. you could share it with our facebook club. the ginger cook acrylic painting club.
\
Which chalk did you use to draw on canvas? Thank you
i like new pastels and here is a link to the chalk pencils' www.amazon.com/shop/gingercook
Hi Ginger. Do you do traceable for your aintings?
many of our CZcams paintings are on Pinterest. Ginger Cook live.
I'm over painting another canvas ginger, and I want to do this. Would a red background look good do ya think !!thanks :-)
Yes red would be lovely. Red and burgundy
Ginger Cook I'm on it now!!! I send pic when done if ok :-) x
Love your Tshit👍👍
Can I use oil colors?
Van Gogh did but I am not sure of his paint order.
I saw a painting of Van Gough in the Philadelphia Art Museum which was blue with yellow flowers which was very large? Do you know the name?
sorry no but you can google it
Can I use a poster color
Acrylic are basically a plastic based paint and when dry and are permanent. Poster paint while water based, erase when wet again. try it but make sure they are very dry before adding layers of paint where I have dried my painting. don't use a lo of water, and use just a damp brush.

Did you know impressionism helps the memory.
Did not good to know. Or if I did know I have forgotten.
hi everyone
Is that paint still available Ginger?
Yes I think so. Its made in New York. They had a store here in Houston but it closed after a couple of years. I think they just do online. Its actually less expensive that other top brands of professional acrylics as it is sold factory direct.
Thanks Ginger!
just to let you know guys. 45, 46 mins into video you went on automatic fast forward!! don't know if it was CZcams or what! didn't miss much thank goodness. I was like whowwwwww slow down ginger lol x
Thanks, I put an annotation "Whoops Note" at the spot. It goes for about one minute on fast forward, then video resumes at normal speed.
Just to let you know around 46 minute it all garbled up ...and fast forwarded during part of the recording...so it appears that it messed up during live? ???
But I love this painting and really wanted to use your tutorial to paint it. Something different for me.
Thanks I saw that. It goes for about one minute and resumes. I made an annotation at the spot and explained it is about a one minute glitch. We lost feed about 3 times last night during the recording of this.
blah blah blah
Resim yapan kadınlar hepmi cok konusur ya
I love this. You guys are so silly too, and I love listening to you talk while painting. You are a great teacher. I do your flower tutorials step by step mixing my paint just like you say, and my paintings look good. I can even draw when you show me how. Thanks.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the positive feedback too.
