If your acrylic paintings are looking too rough when you try to blend, try this tool to keep everything smooth! This tool will help keep your acrylic paints wet longer so that you have time to blend like you would in oil paints! I'm showing you this tool in action to blend clouds in wet over dry vs drybrushing and again in a more advanced raccoon painting!

I started painting in my 60’s and turned 70 yesterday. Videos like yours are giving me more and more confidence to press forward. I’m enjoying it so much more now that I’m seeing some advancements with each painting. Never too old to learn more and more!!! Thank you

@Lachri 2 года назад

Overblending is easy to do with this technique. You only need a couple of swipes with that mop brush (or blush/powder brush in my case) to get good results. If you're doing more than 5 swipes with the brush it's probably too much!

@jadedenthusiasms 2 года назад

Oh my gosh that racoon painting is cute and beautiful!! Awesome tips for blending!!! It is one of my most frustrating things but I just don't want the added dry time and even more so money and cleaning solvents that you need with oils. So I look forward to trying this :) thanks!!

@saranevillerogueart9627 9 месяцев назад

I use pure lavender for layer one. Walnut oil for other layers.. Turpenoid natural for brush cleaning and a tiny bit for paint thinner. Non- poisonous . Might need slight ventilation . The lavender very strong odor but NOT. Toxic to breathe or on skin.
