In this tutorial I’m demonstrating how to paint a mottled background. This ia a very easy tutorial but serves 2 different purposes:
1) It is a very versatile background to use for a variety of subjects like painting wildlife or still-life or portraits
2) 2) this serves as an excellent practice to improve your blending skills with acrylics
If you are interested on the Bird and nests painting I did on this background here’s the link below:
• How to paint a Weaver ...
This painting can be done in oils as well using similar techniques. As it is all done in wet a on wet technique it will be even easier to work with oil paints.

Thank you for the lovely tutorial. Did you dilute the acrylic paint with water first?

This is great. I have a question: My acrylic painting has dried so can I go back and add some blurry places in the background after it has dried?
@SayantiFineArts
@SayantiFineArts 6 месяцев назад
sure you can. and you can use a combination of opaque and translucent paint/ colors in order to cover or show as much as you want of the current painting/ background.

@wendyst.germain4482 5 лет назад
Sayanti Fine Arts I look forward to seeing them. Can you do one adding a background to an existing picture? I painted three multicoloured horses and left the background plain, thinking they were too colourful for one, but it looks wrong and I have no idea what to do when there’s already an image on the canvas. If not, I still want to see your next background lessons (or any angels you want to do 😉😊).

I prefer doing the background first or simultaneously.... but it can be done.... I would a mottled background with pastel shades for multicolored horses!!

I just switched to artist paints from craft paint which I've been so good at but heard I shouldn't sell my paintings if I used craft paint... But this thicker artist paint is so sticky!! Ive redone this background 3 times because it dried so fast and my brush gets sticky!! I've diluted with water too! I'm so frustrated! I want to go back to my tried and true craft paint but feel like a phoney...

Can I use wood instead of canvas for the background? Does it need any preparation? Thank you!
@SayantiFineArts
@SayantiFineArts 3 года назад
you surely can use wood as the surface.but you will need to prime it first - I would recommend an acrylic primer

Can i use cardboard instead of canvas for this technique.
@SayantiFineArts
@SayantiFineArts 5 лет назад
yes you can, but you will have to prime the surface of cardboard to make it smooth. Also, cardboard is not archival, so the work you do may not last.
@sdh791
@sdh791 5 лет назад
how can you go about removing the brush strokes if you don't have one of those makeup brushes?
@SayantiFineArts
@SayantiFineArts 5 лет назад
if you dont have a mop brush/ makeup brush, that is totally cool.......any soft round brush would do
@13Moondancer
@13Moondancer 4 года назад
sdh791 Hi, it really is worth it to buy a mop brush, they are less than £5.00 and soooooo wonderful for blending out brush strokes and for softening the look of the paint. I tried for so long to be successful at this background but it never worked till I bought the mop brush.
