This clip is fantastic!! It really helps me to take my black and white photos and translate them through Value studies to compleate paintings!! I know everyone has asked you this probably, so I apologize in advance: what type of acrylics do use and do you ever use mediums? Also, where can I purchase the box you use for your paints? Is it a craft box? I assume you don’t use water with your acrylics? Thanks for this wonderful video. Where can I purchase your complete videos?
She has a video, 'Acrylic Painting Value Techniques'. It is also addressed in her terrific book, 'How To Paint Fast, Loose and Bold." Hope this helps. :)
Awesome technique. Thanks. May I know what the base canvas colour was? How are the colours so juicy and being acrylics won't they dry if left open for so long?
How To Paint Fast Loose and Bold: I saw this in the book but seeing the flow of your value chart, your colors set out, your brush technique all flowing as a whole makes me feel a lot more hopeful. it is so hard to put it together from print but your book is great but I am ecstatic finding this.
Do they talk about what tones of color should we be look at? I see that she's not using pure yellow or pure blue. Does she explain in the lesson how to determine that relationship?
What is Patti doing so her paints don’t skin over? Is she mixing some type of additive to her paints? I see several others have asked this question as well, very frustrating when questions go unanswered.
Good question! I'm not sure how Patti manages this issue with her acrylic paints, but you might try working with a wet palette. Here's a video that shows how you can make one yourself with inexpensive materials if you want to give it a shot! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-egFxMLawIS4.html
americans cant pronounce the word 'colour' in english so they changed the spelling to color so that it sounded how they say it. haha its so weird because color sounds like something you put around a dogs neck (to me) ;-) nice tutorial...thanks!
Americans dropped the "u" out of many words and not because they couldn't pronounce it. It was just a spelling preference. On the other hand, the Brits can't seem to add the "r" sound to many words, like "car" (they say "caaah") and "colour" (they say "colaaah"). LOL
@@ReviewsAndMore9 This is interesting to me - you're also describing a Boston (MA) accent (e.g. "cahh"); it's one of the first areas of the US where Brits settled.
dragonflycat you have a point but Bostonians also have a strange accent as well that is unique to them and that I don’t associate with the British - I love accents
