i think my favorite part is the soft "f*ck you" ukulele playing in the background lol
Comment from : Bitholeous

How did you make the paint more liquidy? Did you add a medium or just water? Thank you!
Comment from : Laura Malone Hunt

I like this lesson Will be my next project
Comment from : Philo Bailey

is that gnarls barkley on the ukulele?
Comment from : Epictetus Jr

Now is there a reason why you chose the yellow-orange underpainting versus a pink or reddish hue? Both are warm (which I'm assuming is the contrast you were looking for with this predominantly cooler landscape) Just curious
Comment from : Jeffrey Phillips

Thank you Will for the awesome videos, starting to paint after a long time after art school Loving the music as well - I think I heard Cilo Greene's "forget you" in there

No hard borders Got it
Comment from : Callahad

Thank you for that off camera scene, it might be trivial, but I had no idea that wiping paint off with kitchen towel is enough I'd always wash it off with a jar of water
Comment from : Sarah

Total beginner here I'm loving the tutorials so far I'm alternating your tutorials with finding my own references to paint from I'm curious though How do you choose which background canvas color to start with? Is it arbitrary or is there some logic behind your background choice?
Comment from : Jon Sauder

Can't help but notice the ukulele covers of pop songs
Comment from : Kelly Kirsch

These are fantastic! Thank you so very much for sharing I've just started painting I've never considered myself very artistic, but surprising my 1st painting came out pretty well, especially since I had no idea what I was doing :) Now I'm searching techniques, etc Your videos are just what I was looking for and your personality makes them fun and easy to watch Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Forget you! I'm sorry, I can't afford a Ferrari
Comment from : Ethan Fletcher

It wouldn't make more sense to me, but every artist works differently A common mistake is to view your painting in separate subject matter rather than working it up as a whole If you go to my blog you can see more video tutorials based on this and the 7 painting principles I work to Cheers, Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

No, just water Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Yes, and this keeps them wet on the palette but doesn't alter their workability time on the canvas In this vid, you able to continue working your clouds for longer than I could I just wondered if this is what the "open" ness of Golden paints means, or if you have some tip for keeping acrylics workable Thanks
Comment from : muskndusk

That wouldn't make much of a difference to the drying time, have you tried a stay-wet palette? Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

I noticed that your paints seem to stay wet on the canvas for longer than mine, yet you don't appear to be mixing them with a retarder I use Daler Rowney System 3 acrylics, and I think you're using Golden Could this be a quality of the paint manufacturer and type?
Comment from : muskndusk

like if you heard the background music wereForget you by Celo Green and Perfect by Pink ^_^
Comment from : Gerome Cruz

Hi Carol, its due mainly to the quality of the paints being used Artist quality paint can make a huge difference in the ease of painting with acrylics There is a comparison article between student grade and artist quality paints on my site Cheers, Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Hey BleakeACE15, any artist quality brush is good, for acrylics I use Isabey Isacryl, and for oils I use Rosemary & co Ivory & Mongoose brushes, cheers, Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Hi Natalie, I use only water throughout this painting to extend the colour
Comment from : willkempartschool

Hello Will! What brush brand do you recommend best? I'm looking for goodbrushes, to get started
Comment from : JJ Cruz

Hi Marissa you can get good quality brushes from pretty much any art supple store or online, just look for 'artist quality' brushes an acrylic or oil brush would work for this painting Thanks, Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

this is usually do to a shiny surface on the canvas or a bristle that is too stiff, try with a softer bristle brush to start with Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Hi, my name is marissa, I was just wondering what kind of paint brushes would I need for this painting and other paintings? Also where can I get good quality brushes? I'm a beginner so I'm not really sure how to go about finding brushes and paints etc
Comment from : Marissa Salazar

when i try to paint a large area, my brush strokes take off the paints on the canvas how can i prevent this?
Comment from : theeachuisge

Hi Sarah, Yes you can use acrylics on paper, just make sure it's quite a thick paper and tape it down onto a board Also don't use excessive amounts of water as the paper will buckle Good luck with the landscape painting, Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Hi Will, I'm 15 and decided to try acrylics over the summer I picked up some paints, brushes and a canvas and stumbled to your website looking for some guidance I'm very pleased to have! You're videos explain things very well Anyway, my question is that I don't have a lot of money for canvas, so can you use acrylics on paper? If so, anything to watch for? Looking forward to hearing your response and starting this painting Cheers, Sarah
Comment from : Sarah Falvey

Yes you can, acrylics are amazingly flexible
Comment from : willkempartschool

Can you paint on printing paper with acrylics?

Comment from : willkempartschool

I have been painting with oil but want to learn to use acrylic so I can paint in the house as I am in a wheelchair for awhile you make it look so easy and you explain it so much better than others I have looking at THANK YOU
Comment from : Benjiman Pannell

@xxeu4riaxx Get your canvas's unpacked and get experimenting! This landscape is super easy to follow and you can download the image from my website if your looking for something to get started with, you could always use this as a starting point and go abstract from there Good luck Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

im a drawer lol! went and picked myself up 3 canvas's and some acrylic :D kinda getting bored of the colors in drawing :( i thought to myself painting looks so relaxing the colors are way better,you can blend much better shade etc!!! i think there is more emotion in paintings! lol dnt call me crazy :P videos are helping heaps! even though i havnt unpacked anything yet,let alone know what i am going to paint! im usually drawing abstracts etc and psychedelic art

Comment from : Kireji Art

do you store in jars your premixed paint? it takes a lot of time to premix can you pleaaase do a tutorial on storing premixed paints and what are your most used premixed colors?
Comment from : this1is1me

@willkempartschool No to make the paint go further and make it easier to spread on the canvas?
Comment from : P Woolley

@Pedrofreestyle97 Hi Pete, Do you mean to keep the paint wetter for longer? Or to make the paint go further? Will
Comment from : willkempartschool

Do you use water when adding the paint to make it last longer?
