Hello, here is the Wednesday post for this week! I have
spent the last weekend and two weekdays feverishly editing this longer painting
video for you all to enjoy! This is a real time painting video…
I know!
I haven’t done one of these in a while, because I know that
most people do enjoy watching the time-lapse painting videos just as well as
the real time ones; however, an artist friend of mine and fellow YouTuber, Dave
Usher, recently mentioned that he enjoyed watching real time videos that
contain audio commentary and asked if I could do more of them. I thought this
was a good idea, and proceeded to create this one.
As I discuss in the video, when I started to paint this
abstracted acrylic cityscape, titled “Purple Sunset,” I set a strict one-hour
time limit on myself, meaning I would stop at that point and was going to need
to finish the piece by then... I did it!
The longest part of the video editing was actually the audio
editing on the commentary instructions that I include in this painting video,
which I hope you all will find interesting. I discuss techniques, the paint
combinations that I am using, along with other related concepts and ideas.
The Painting Video:
If you would like to paint this piece, or one like it, here
is a list of the materials that you will need:

Prime the canvas with the Gesso, I use an Acrylic Red

Thanks for watching the video and viewing my latest abstract
painting today! As always, have a great creative Wednesday, and I will be back
