6/9/2019

I was happy to find another use for my Homemade Texture Medium!
Filling in those rock holes for artists who like to paint on rocks!
It works great! Watch the video, and then try it on a rock from your own yard.

I have added the link so you can make your own Texture Medium.

Birds Nest Surprise, Pt 3, Water Mixable Oil Paint

6/6/2019

This is the 3rd and final part of Bird Nest Surprise, adding the color!
Today I am using a new product, Water Mixable Oil Paint!
I love this paint! ? No smell, easily cleans with soap and water.
Dries without being so shiny. Safe for children.
Those are all great reasons to try and use this product.
I have a lot to learn about it because it is so new to me but I'm studying!

Did this Water Mixable Oil Paint look interesting to you?
You may want to give it a try. Let me know how you felt about it.

Bird Nest Surprise, Pt 2, Sketch & Texture

6/4/2019

This is part 2 of Bird Nest Surprise!
First of all we have to put in a sketch using black vine charcoal.
The second thing to be done is to add texture to make tree bark.
This will take a little time, but well worth it.
After watching the video if you want my Texture recipe, just mention it in comments.

Such a fun project! I hope you will find it exciting!
You do not have to add texture. You can just finish by painting if you prefer.
Part 3 will be the last of the series, adding the color.

This is the 1st part of Birds Nest Surprise, and the most important, the background!
It is done with Acrylic paint, and with my special blend of Medium Extender.
But you can use any slow dry or extender you have, that you may like better!
I will post a link below to my homemade medium.
There will be 2 more parts to this series, doing unusual new things!
It will be fun. Hope you join in!

Be sure to let this first acrylic part dry for 24 hours. It's important.
Stay tuned for part 2 and 3 soon!

My Acrylic Medium Formula

5/14/2019

Do you ever have a problem with your acrylic paint not staying wet long enough?
I was having that problem so I started experimenting with different products,
and I think I found a formula that works to extend the drying time.
It has worked for me, and I have been using it for a while now.
Maybe it will work for you too.
The video below is my recipe on how to make this extender.

Give it a try, and because it is new, as with any new product,
you will have to experiment with it to find the best way to work with it.
Thank you for watching!
