    Excellent! As an Abstract Expressionist painter myself, your tips with example are what I work with. Also, very important is balancing all of the elements and weight. I also refer to Franz Kline and he has done a lot of work mostly unknown that includes colour.

    Just discovered your channel, Tom, and love your energy (bet the kids do too). Just a technical point really: when you do a long shot of your painting at the end, the inserts for associated videos appear on the screen which detracts from enjoying your work. I think you have to add an ending shot to your movie (end of edit) so this doesn't happen. Keep up the good work !

    OOOOOOOH I loved it. Have you ever used airbrush medium? I bought some by mistake thinking it was slow dry medium for acrylic and I don't know how to use it. Maybe it would give some good drippy stuff in this kind of painting. More more of Franz Kline kind of paintings!! Now I know how to use my oil pastels someone gave me which have been sitting around for 5 yrs. Thank you SO much.

    Tom do you use Parker Quink ink? It is washable so wondering how it would hold up with other water based materials. Thanks for your help.

    • @TomQuigleyArt
      @TomQuigleyArt  Před 3 lety

      Yes I do, aspects of it will bleed into other areas but I tend use these as happy accidents, a lot of drawing inks will keep coming through layers such as white acrylic. But majority hold and don’t dissolve when other layers applied
