Super helpful video! Especially how you covered posture and taking care of your joints and body! It’s really easy to overlook that when we get carried away painting
@@CaleighBirdArt I'm 62 and trying to decide what to do with my time. I thought of starting painting. How did you start with education or did you just buy supplies and them start painting?
Wow I wasn't expecting to get that she just gave a whole art degrees worth of knowledge like I've done one decent oil painting and didn't know what the hell I was doing apparently now with the free college education I just received I no bullshit feel like I forgot what I thought I knew and relearned how to paint like a frickin professional great job on the video you covered damn near everything that there is to know about painting and thyen some probably the best straight forward @$$ informative/ learning how to art techniques videos I've ever watched lol I was just seeing if the spiderman painting I did with my 5year old son was done probably but I'm just start from scratch on that lol
Wow what a complement Ronny! Thank you so much! Funny you should say that because I actually now do teach college art… But I’m still so happy to give the knowledge for free here on TH-cam! Thank you so much for joining me here and for giving me a big huge smile today!😁🎨
I want to get into oil painting and this video popped up and seems to be interesting! What videos would you advise for me, ( I have no idea of what I’m getting into).could you Please advise. 🙏
How do you dispose of your paint palettes/used rags? is it flammable because of the paint thinner/turpentine? I am so nervous getting started because im so worried about starting a fire!
I actually have a video all about that! I knw that can be one of the most nerve wracking things about getting started, and I'm always glad to hear when people want to err on the side of caution. No need worry though! Check it out : th-cam.com/video/7khJSeSZ_B0/w-d-xo.html
If you paint really large and wet - painting standing at neck/shoulder neutral position and a vertical palette won't work. Not without standing on a ladder/stool or canvas on the floor and standing on something above it. Art is pain. LOL!
True! When I paint with gouache (which can run) I do so on a flat table. I think the key is just to switch things up and make sure you're not holding any one position for too long:)
I've always studied and created art since I was a very young child. I've taken art classes my whole life and then got undergrad and graduate degrees in painting with an art history minor. I've studied in Europe twice and always spent lots of time self-teaching as well. Art has always been my passion and I was lucky enough to be encouraged as a young person by my parents too:)

Thank you - I'm so grateful for these tips. Very kind and generous of you to share.
Absolutely! I'm so glad to hear they have helped you:)
Love this series, you cover things that most skip over!
You know if there's one thing this Bird is, it's thorough! XD Glad you like:)
I guess I am kinda off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch new movies online ?
@Koda Chaim lately I have been using flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
Very helpful video! Thank you for making it, esp the part about posture.
You're welcome! Being kind to our backs/neck/wrists in the studio is soooo essential for long term artmaking, Glad you found it helpful:)
This is SO helpful for beginning painters!! Thank you!
You're welcome, so glad to hear it!

I´m learning a lot from you. thanks for the series
So glad to hear it!! Oil painting definitely doesn't have to be intimidating:)
Primed hardboard is also great to paint on especially for plein air.

Great video! A lot of helpful information and tips were covered.

I like glass on a table as a palette
Oooh yes! i did that for years! I should have mentioned it in the vid, but since it's been a while it slipped my mind!
Excellent video and detailed explanation 🥰🥰
Thank you! I'm always so glad to hear it!
I love your color pallettes hanging on the wall...where did you get those? tks

You are amazing!
Aww you made my day!!
Nice vedio
Freezer paper is so much cheaper and larger than pallette paper
Good idea!!

What made you decide to become an artist? Did you go to education or just started on your own by studying art on your own?
