Acrylic Animal Portrait Technique Video 2 of 2 

LOL! "with a good stiff drink, I like to stand way back and look at what I've done!" Your authenticity, honesty and integrity are unbeatable. You so deserve all good things that come your way. Will paint my dog because you have so inspired me. Thx!

The small details are vital, and it takes longer to complete the portrait, excellent tutorial, the perspective is very important, I'm also a self taught artist, and we are the best, we are always learning and enjoying every moment of it, with our hearts and soul ❤

Your a wonderful artist and your paintings are amazing

It was a joy to watch you paint that gorgeous dog and I was fascinated to hear you explain so much of the process. Thank you so much for sharing.

Part two was just as great as part one! I would LOVE to see more videos like this. Thank you so much for generously sharing your time and talent. I will be watching for the challenge.

Your tutorial is excellent, but you have to admit, that's very difficult when talking and trying to paint at the same time,,, you lose some of the momentum, so it takes a lot longer to get the calligraphy correctly, but you're doing a fantastic tutorial, thank you, I have learned a lots of tips,,,you're one of my favorite on you tube ,,,,, awesome, a lots of professionalism,,, looking forward to see you and your daughter do a tutorial together,,,Zoe God bless

I love your painting.

Such an interesting painting , how you brought it together, so glad I seen it, will go look at your others

Thank you for the excellent tutorial. I really enjoyed watching and learning.

Thank you for your generosity. I really enjoyed following you throughout the whole process. You are an talented painter, and a generous teacher. Merci. :))

Talent runs in the family. Painting the face like sculpting. Great painting.

I've really enjoyed both dogs. Thank you!

Yay...so excited to paint this lesson "with you." No doubt these techniques will help me more easily paint my pet portrait commissions. Thanks again for the studies! Beautiful work!

Thank you sooooo much for sharing your talent !!!

You are an awesome painter and an awesome teacher! 👍🤩😍

Your work and teaching are amazing. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent and tips!

I learned SO much from these two videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the process. I esp enjoy how flexible you are with regard to the process and how open you seem to be about how others may differ. I am new to painting. I’ve been painting pet portraits for a few years, but have no formal training. For instance- I still don’t know what ‘extender’ is- but I’m going to do some research and find some asap! I never thought to use my fingers to blur lines. And I never thought to stage the background into the subject - but how wonderful that looks! Thank you. I will def follow and hope you keep showing us how to paint pets!

I'm so glad I came across this guy! Already incorporating this technique in to my work!

Wonderful, thank you so much once again, what a wonderful artist and teacher you are.

It really looks like him 🤩 wow 👍❤️🥰🤩

I think it will help me a lot with the painting that I will be working on. I might try this technique. My friend wants me to paint his german shepherd. I was thinking the same things at the same time as you, so I guess that's a good sign. I don't like to tone the background before painting. What I like to do is paint the background as much as I can and then paint the thing I want on it. Great videos, I really enjoyed watching you painting this dog.

I have no formal training and try to just paint what I see. I'm finding out that there are so many different techniques. Thank you for sharing this, it was very informative.

This is so wonderful, I love it so much I could cry.. much love from Germany ❤️

Very nice! I would love to see you paint a longhaired Dachshund.

Oh my goodness. Beautiful. I have a Great Pyrenees and black lab mix, greying muzzle. Can't wait to try them together in one pic. I have this on my to do list. Thank you for this one. I didn't think anything today....yet! 🤪

Thank you a lot for these videos! I learned a lot!

Absolutely amazing! I've learnt so much by watching this video. (First time watching it - and your channel). Thank you for sharing.

I love this style and technique so much! I bet this would help me learn to see the tones better...gonna have to try this out. Thank you for teaching this. I really appreciate that you explain things so clearly!

Beautiful! Can’t wait for you to paint your next one! And a B&G MaCaw in our future! 😉👍🏻❤️

This came out sooo good! I really enjoyed this method. Ever so cool!!

Great watching you at work - inspiring

Love painting with u.I’m a beggener .My dream is to paint animals I have a lot of work to do so I will be watching your videos . Thank u so much.

Beautifully done!

hi David, fantastic I hope to see lots more of you and your beautiful work, thank you J Zieve,Zimbabwe

Mesmerising David, painting is beautiful. What is the brand of the marker? I live in Australia I wish I lived closer to you so I could attend live classes. Thanks again for putting your time in for us.

What medium do you use with the Acrylics to keep them open and workable for so long. I mix colors & they dry up & even using water it's so dry it just turns into a watery color

When I started drawing in university, my brother was a lecturer, so he had the fineliner and the see through plastic, which they used with the projector 📽 👨‍🏫 I read a book about the masters using a candle to project the drawing and I thought hmm 🤔 I should borrow my brothers tools to copy my photograph and project onto a canvas. And that’s how I painted a massive landscape, with very little drawing experience. It was fun, but I think I stunted my growth.. because I became overconfident for a beginner Anyway long story short, I love the projector pen and plastic technique. But nothing beats drawing from scratch for long term artistic growth

Wonderful

Great....👍🏻👍🏻
