Thank you ❣️

Thank you William❣️

Hi thank you for watching❣️ And for me abstract art is a process.. the layers are just what comes without thinking about it. And sometimes the first layers show through at the end and sometimes they are completely covered 😊 I hope it makes sence what I am trying to explain 😅

Thank you very much❣️

Hello Sergio, its a spatula for plastering drywall? I bought it at a hardware store. Its called a plastering trowel, i believe. This one is made of plastic. You also have them in iron. I googled them and see one at Amazon? I hope you can find one!

@@MadeForYouArt thanks for your prompt response... now "don't get off the wave"🤘🏼🤙🏼💪🏼

Thank you❣️

Hi Marilyn, thank you for watching! I use canvas and yes I spray water to dilute the paint. I started painting in 2018. I started with pouring/ fluid art as you can see on my channel a few video's of that technique. In 2019 I started painting abstract and yes I teach myself. I did take a few abstract art classes now and then. But mostly I get inspired by other abstract artist. I hope you will enjoy painting as much as I do 🥰

Thank you 😁❣️

Hi Thank you❣️ the first time it was an oil stick/crayon and the second time it was a paintbrush with blck acrylic paint 😊 thank you for watching!

@@MadeForYouArt lol

Thank you so much Renata❣️ And Yes, not between all the layers but i do leave some to dry. I paint when i have a free minute to spare, so some video's/paintings are made in a few days or weeks even.. 😊

Magnifique travail comme à chaque fois ! Je suis fan ! C'est fascinant, merci Est-ce que tu pourrais donner les couleurs que tu utilises ? Et sur cette toile, est-ce que tu as laissé le marron sécher avant de passer le blanc ? Merci 🙏💕

Thank you so much Rose, unfortunatly I do can not recall all the colors I used, because some I mixed them myself 🙈 So sorry ❣️ Thank you for watching ❤️

Hi, that is water 🙂

Merci ❣️ J'utilise un pastel à l'huile pendant et à la fin. Et oui je vernis toujours mes peintures, seulement je ne montre pas ça sur la vidéo 😊 Cordialement de retour des Pays-Bas !

@@MadeForYouArt merci.cordialement .

Hi Dilciadominquez! Thank you❣️ I buy the large spatulas in a hardware store. They are used for applying drywall, there are different sizes and some are straight at the end and some have teeth at the end. I hope you can find it. If you have any other questions I am happy to answer them! Just let me know 😃

Hi Angelique, well that's not easy to know. I just listen to my innerfeeling and stop when I don't know what to do next. And let the painting sit for a while and look at it..and that can take a few days or sometimes weeks. When I feel it needs something else, i do continue and sometimes its much but I keep working on it until its ok. And sometimes I stop because i feel like its finished. My latest painting & video was one that took a while and you can see me going on for layers and layers 😅 But at the end there it was: the final feeling,its finished!

Its just part of my process 😊 I am not the only one. Lots of abstract painters have layers on top of layers, in the end its how i feel about it and others can feel different about it. 😊 Its not right or wrong i believe, but thats just my opinion

It actually does, for all sorts of reasons

Hi Erica, unfortunatly no, but in video #26 I talk about some of the tools I use and I have a photo of them. I use paletknifes, brushes, scrapers, hardwarestore tools, oilpastels, charcoal for example. If you have any more questions, just let me know❣️

@@MadeForYouArt Thanks so much for the reply!! Love you work and appreciate you sharing your process. I have zero experience, but I am starting to let myself explore painting and specifically abstract as it is the only thing I suddenly want to do. When you use the stick, is it sometimes charcoal and then a paint brush with black paint? That is the coolest idea 💡 ever!

@@ericacortis1905 Go and start and just paint and try different techniques and tools, to figure out what you like and love! I get inspired by other artist. I also did a course at Artify and they taught me a lot 😊 Yes i use the stick sometimes with charcoal or a oilpastel taped at the end, or a paintbrush..it give you zero control 😅 That I like. Enjoy your painting journey!

@@MadeForYouArt Thank you so so much for your words of encouragement 🥰🤍 I truly appreciate it. And for sharing your beautiful work and process.

Thank you, I understand what you mean, but then the video's will be hours long 😅

Thank you ❣

Hi, I only used acrylic paint, and a bottlespray with water. Or I diluted the paint with water to create the splater. Thank you for watching ❣️

Thank you Sara, just water ❣️

I am so sorry for your loss❣️ I understand its hard to miss your best friend and mom😔 I lost my mother in 2019 and I miss her deeply 😓 She didnt paint but was very creative in her own way and I she loved to see my paintings. I made a painting a few weeks after she died en it still hangs in my livingroom. Its video nr7 " Tranguility of Soul" After it was finished I saw in the white paint a women looking over her shoulder and I believe it her..looking back to me.

Thank you for watching and your lovely comment ❣️

Thank you ❣️

Thank you very much❣️ I crumble the paper and spray them with ink, different colors...let them dry...because wet they will tear. When dry i tear them in pieces and glue them on the canvas..sometimes paint a little bit over them..but not always..Hope this is helpfull! 😊

Thank you ❣️❣️

Thank you❣️

Thank you ❣️

Thank you ❣️ Yes i did let some layers dry in between 😊 Thank you for watching!

Thank you ❣️

Hi, yes i do let layers dry in between, exept when I know that the colors wont create mud. Like black and white for example, i like it when the create another color.

Hi, i used different brands: Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Spray and Dylusion Ink Spray..

Thank you & You're welcome ❣️

I understand your sentiments here. Did you know that most artists that do abstract painting can also draw and paint realistic and detailed art (even anatomy)? They did not just woke up one day and decided to randomly splash paint on a canvass and call it a finished painting. It's all about the self-expression from the artists. Anyone can paint but not everyone is a talented painter that truly understands how textures, forms, patterns, and colors work. ☺
