In this video I team up with my good friend and artist Jen Hillenga as she shows me a very cool technique for turning printed photos on canvas into real works of art!
I've always wanted to try this technique after seeing the mixed media art in several places but was too nervous!
Jen illustrates just how easy it is, and the fundamentals behind it. I really thought it was awesome and urge everyone to try to create something truly unique!
We printed our images with the fabulous lab Printique: www.printique.com/ (mine was a 16x24 canvas print). I printed two copies of the image to allow myself to experiment and try something new.
Throughout the video we'll cover the essential tools you'll need (brushes/paint/medium), painting 101 tricks for different techniques (dry brush, dripping, etc), achieving different textures, and how to just 'let go' and make it happen!
I hope you enjoy it!

I just saw this and very much appreciate how generous Jen and Lindsay were with their time and experience, sharing a technique I haven’t tried yet. I totally agree with Jen’s assessment that art has no rules. Unfortunately, chemistry and physics do, so I will add a word of caution about thinning acrylic paints with too much water. As a general rule of thumb, by volume, you should not use more water than 1 part water to one part acrylic paint (or acrylic paint+ acrylic medium mixture.) When you do, there is a probability that the paint applied to a substrate will fail to attach itself to the substrate properly, causing the paint to flake away from the material it was applied to because the acrylic molecules now floating in water become too separated to bind properly.

A marvelous and hugely educational presentation - Thank You. I especially loved Jen's teaching approach, where she encourages experimentation and allays any new artist fears.

It is amazing to watch a consummate photographic artist 'panic' like everyone else when leaning outside their skills bubble, and to see confidence grow as the excellent teacher breaks down those insecurities. Hugely motivational. Lovely to watch.

I was thinking the same thing and loved hearing, "adding more art can only benefit."

@lindsayadlerphoto 2 года назад

It was nerve wracking for sure but fun! It's good to get outside your comfort zone and push yourself as an artist, even if it's just for fun!

@christinebyrne9923 3 месяца назад

Thank you for this inspiring video. Can you use an art print from a retail store or the thrift store to paint over? The canvas feels more artificial and not absorbent.

@lindsayadlerphoto 3 месяца назад

To be honest I'm not entirely sure but I would say give it a shot and see if you get interesting results!

@lindaenger9270 2 года назад

this has been a technique many painters have used for a very long time to take their giclee prints on canvass and make them more into " paintings " . And the old family portraits were b7w prints on canvas ( or paper ) with oils to color :) .Considering all the rubbing off of pigment I have experienced with prints on canvas, painting is also good camouflage. :)

@lindsayadlerphoto 2 года назад

hahaha. good strategy for hiding. I like it.

Can I paint on printed canvas with oil paints? Should we use something before using the oil paint or can we apply the oil paint directly? Thanks for the video!

@iramwaleed6718 Год назад

Hi. I really love the mixed media art. It is genius to take a boring canvas to a new level of creativity. My question is can I do the same on store bought printed canvas picture or the color will peel off due to treatment to protect it from natural elements? Thank you

@lindsayadlerphoto Год назад

To be honest I'm not really sure-- all new to this. I'd give you an answer but honestly I'd just be looking it up on google and guessing lol
