At 84 I’m just starting and your tips were most helpful. Thanks

@CLIVE5ART 4 года назад

Glad you are painting it's a great hobby

@darianabdullah 4 года назад

1. Use gesso 2. Put a ground color on the painting before the gesso dries (to help you get a sense of color vs. pure white) 3. Spray water on the opposite side to keep paint from coming through and evaporating 4. Use two different containers of water. One for washing your brush, one for thinning down your paint. Don't use too much water, just slightly dip then rub it on the rim of the lid afterwards, that'll be enough. 5. Wet your palette to stop evaporation.

@thenmsaid1577 4 года назад

Gesso. I am self taught painter. Tips like this helped heaps I NEEDED THAT so much. I didnt realise that's why i was eating through my paint. The canvas was absorbing it.

@neva3504 Год назад

I'm 66 and just starting, guess it's true. Never to old to learn. 🙂

@mediocracyat_itsfinest767 4 года назад

I'm a young artist, trying to sell my own art, and have just decided I didn't know near enough about painting, something I love doing! These tips were SO helpful, and I genuinly feel like you were just giving advice and trying to spread your knowledge!! Thank you for the advice, I didn't even know what gesso was for before now!!

@CLIVE5ART 4 года назад

Keep painting it's not so much about how good we are it's more about the fun we have learning no matter what your skill you can always sell your work

@kellyb.artistry 5 лет назад

Loving the tip of wetting the back of the canvas. Was driving me crazy when paint was drying into the canvas so quickly. This has made painting so much easier. Many Thanks x

I absolutely could watch and listen to you all day!!! I started painting at the age of 6 ,my mom is Italian and nearly all of them are artists...but I was all self taught because I refused to listen to them and a bit rebellious...and I'm kicking myself for not soaking up all those years of experience they could have offered...lol...but I found my niche,and I'm loving FB tutorials, yours most of all!!! Thanks again for the great tips!!!!

@CLIVE5ART 5 лет назад

We all must find our own way as long as your happy that’s all that counts I’m happy you enjoy painting

@rogergowers4415 2 года назад

These tutorials are terrific Clive. I'm in my 70s and just restarting in painting...there's tips on here that we were never taught at art college..brilliant. Thanks.

@ginnymoore6423 4 года назад

Awesome! I'm 60 years old, and though I've always been artistic, painting is the one thing that scares me! But, I want to learn SO BADLY, so I'm watching, watching, WATCHING video after video learning as I go, ordering what I need. THIS is awesome I've watched it twice now, I've subscribed. I don't know if I have any talent for painting or not, but I'm gonna find out! THANK YOU for sharing all your knowledge. ❤️😊

@tomheid1855 5 лет назад

The only tip I totally agree with is the water tip. I'm on a totally different plain than you. I stretch my own canvases, buying (I like #10 duck), by the roll. Purchase my own wood from a lumber yard. Forty years ago I started painting on raw canvas, don't even buy or make gesso anymore. I mix my paints, never use any color direct from tube or jar, all my colors are unique (and with experience ), I can duplicate them. I too started out a representational painter, but over the years saw more of the line & color relationships and am now totally abstract. Lots of good info, for you beginners here. The best information any teacher ever gave me is, "This is art, there aren't any rules." Cheer's

@CLIVE5ART 5 лет назад

Thank you I try to help all skill levels as sounds like your like me make it yourself and enjoy all parts of the process good for you. Keep up the great work

@andrewpycke3255 4 года назад

I just did my first acrylic painting yesterday with the set I got for Christmas. It made me want to improve everything and this video just gave me so many helpful tips. I just starting painting a year ago with oils but I’d never tried acrylics. I’m eager to learn some new techniques. Thanks so much for the lesson. I look forward to more.

Thanks for the tips boyo. This 81 yr old novice appreciates your help and also appreciates the Welsh Griffin in the background and your Welsh accent, not yet rubbed off by the telly. My parents were both born and raised in S. Wales and I was born in London, lived in Pontypool, Monmouthshire for a year at age 11. I plan to watch all of your videos. Great advice. Cheerio. Dave

@hammadoolass 4 года назад

I bought a shed-load of acrylic paints, brushes, canvases, etc. - then realised I didn't have a clue where to start. This video is a Godsend for me - especially the 4th tip about the water (I didn't know you had to use water - I would have used the paints neat) --- wish me luck Clive - and THANK YOU. X

@CLIVE5ART 4 года назад

You can use the paint as is but water helps the flow dobtbiver thin tho no more options Han 45% with water

@joe-annataylor4159 3 года назад

As I was just about to try an acrylic painting, I forgot all the “rules”, but watching your MOST HELPFUL video answered all my questions! A huge THANK YOU!!

@jalayneatkins8565 5 лет назад

Leaving a brush in water for a long time also causes wooden handles to soak up water making them swell which causes a number of problems: the metal feral gets stretched and when the wood dries and shrinks back the feral will be loose and may even fall off if the water softened the glue holding it on.... the bristles may even start falling out one by one or even all at once if the glue holding them in softened as well..... When the handle swells it also cracks the enamel paint on the handle which causes a multitude of cracks in it... Then when the wood dries and shrinks back the enamel coating starts flaking off---falling into your wet paint, onto your project and even causing slivers in your fingers from the raw wood beneath as well as from the paint chips themselves. I learned this from experience !! aaaarghhh

@CLIVE5ART 5 лет назад

Yup me too.. that's why when cleaned wipe them off with a paper towel and lay flat to dry.

@keekoboo5012 5 лет назад

Guess I should go remove my brushes from the water...

@uhavemooface 2 года назад

I just went to Hobby lobby here in the states and bought me some gesso for the first time. I am getting back into acrylic. I am not as profecient as you are but I am hoping to get there. I am 44 so I have a few years left of life to get good at painting lol. Great tips for a beginner like me.

@amarinderkaur3391 2 года назад

Thank you, this is so helpful! I was going to paint on Terracotta pots with acrylics. I am now going to wet them before I start.

@deannabagwell2570 3 года назад

I've been painting about 2 years now and I like to look on RU-vid to see what new things I can learn. Most are so convoluted I don't take away much or they're too long. This was perfect, concise and clear. Thank you for these tips. I will now be using these going forward!

@kathrynhayden6432 3 года назад

I just retired an am in a funk. You brightened my day!! I have always wanted to learn how to paint but had no idea where to begin. You have helped me so much. Thanks!!

@slanguagefreak2388 4 года назад

I think this was the most useful set of tips I have ever received regarding acrylic paints in such a short time. They really helped a lot.

@CLIVE5ART 4 года назад

Thank you

@joshuadavisonstillwell2803 4 года назад

These tips make so much sense for acrylic. I'm halfway through a piece, and I am going to start tomorrow's session with these. I can't wait. Love the tip of adding a slight tone to the gesso - its so true that when I start a painting, my eyes plays tricks on me until there is color on the whole canvas. This will be so helpful when I start my next project. Thank you so much!

@amberleagowen 4 года назад

I must say sir, your ascent is a breath of fresh air. I'm a young novice artist from the Rhondda and finally finding someone I can learn from that is easier to follow and understand is amazing. I moved to Australia 7 years ago and I really miss the old welsh rock. Keep up the amazing work!

@shaheestashaikh880 3 года назад

@teresalowry6340 4 года назад

Thank you so much for these tips. I went to a paint party and we were instructed to paint straight into the canvas. I wasn't happy with the results and have wanted to find better ways of painting. I'm so glad I found you.

@CLIVE5ART 4 года назад

They teach only their way I allow you to do what you want with guidance

@redf7209 3 года назад

So glad you mention gesso. I've seen so many good paintings spoilt by the artist not doing this and they wonder why their fine painting looks so woolly. I think ground colour you choose depends what you are painting.

@patriciaengelman6847 4 года назад

Thank you so very much. I did not realize how much I was interested in painting abstract as well as other types of paintings, until I was 50 years old. I can not do the physical things outside that I enjoyed all my life. So I started pouring paint which was fun, but really wanted to do more. Now this is my relaxing technique. I have asked questions on to other artists with no response. Thank you so much for your videos and expertise!!

@sergiotriana1322 4 года назад

You're the best! I find myself coming back to your channel every time I begin a new art project to help re-organize and facilitate my creative process. Thank you for passing down your wealth of expertise onto so many aspiring artists. You are truly appreciated.

@miciomiao4378 3 года назад

Omg, I've never primed my canvases, that's why when I bought them they looked so rough and not so smooth. This explains why they're so cheap! Thank you very much! I'm going to see how to make the gesso :) thank you very very much! Extremely helpful!

@dianas514 Год назад

Thank You! Such great tips. Will be trying them out this evening when pick up brushes. Wishing you a beautiful day!

@danpaxton3535 3 года назад

Gesso is perhaps the most important step. I am a painter who went to art school and they didn't teach me this very important step. Then I wondered why I was using up my expensive paints so quickly. ALWAYS PRIME YOUR SURFACE BEFORE PAINTING. It is life changing. Something else I have been doing with my canvases lately is sanding them down a bit. I bought some cheap sandpaper (120 grit-2000 grit) and sanded my canvas before painting on it. I haven't painted on the canvas yet, but as I was applying gesso to the canvas, I realized it was a very smooth application. I've also heard it makes blending easier and it just looks better since store bought canvases tend to have a lot of texture on them (which is good for some paintings, but not all).

@mariananannetti5849 3 года назад

Newbie beginner here. Thank you so much for your videos. Your instruction is perfect. Not just what or not what to do, but why. Understanding why helps me to be less afraid. Like I’m in control. When I’m actually not. LOL. I haven’t even started on my first canvas yet. But now I feel like I can. Happy painting!

That was a very precious help for beginners. I googled so much to find out about gesso and preparation for painting and here it is all in one practical video..... I was near to give up because I noticed that the results were just lacking technical knowledge. Wow thank you so much.

@emilybroh7004 3 года назад

I never realized you were supposed to gesso if it’s pre-primed! It makes so much sense though, now that you explain it!

I am 59 and have just come into my creative juices!!! My first Sketch with charcoal pencils was in December 2017 in Kona HI while I was in a midwifery program. I am entering it in the Tulsa Art competition, as I have been encouraged to do so. It does NOT look like a first time sketch. Now I am working with acrylics and oil sticks. I am so excited to see that I have creativity within and am eager to see where this goes!!! thank you Clive 5 for your excellent tips!!!
