"You're creating shapes, not applying paint.'' Thanks Dianne for that distinction. Something just clicked for me and I wasn't even the one that asked the question 🙂. I will keep this in mind.
Thank you for this QT, Dianne! I never properly put my brushes thru their paces (you bet I'll be doing these exercises now!!) but was recently reminded of the importance of doing so when I decided to experiment w/ some new mark-making tools on a painting - cold, w/ no warm-up! 😱 I hope you're healing more and more each day! 💗
You know, I've gained a lot of respect for you by watching your videos. At first I thought you were just someone who's hobby was painting, and that you've probably done it for a long time. But as I've learned a bit more, I've come to realize that your little lessons are not just some trivial information that one can pickup by playing with paint.
Thanks. Ten years ago when we first began these Quick Tips, the initial idea was to present the process of composing paintings in tiny chunks, easy to comprehend.

Yes Dianne you are right!! It's about creating shapes not applying colors! Thank you for another important tip regarding paintings! YOU ARE EVERY PAINTERS BEST FRIEND!! Take Care💐
Thank you so much for this Dianne, I was picking brushes without much thought!! its nice to have a methodology to evaluate them to improve my choices in the future! Thanks again very much enjoying your videos.
I love this channel so much ❤️ Funny but Ayvazovski indeed often started his paintings with a broom, and Repin often used a cigarette butt deeped in ink for quick sketch notes
I never thought about testing my brushes, I just grab what I think would do the job and end up with a dozen sitting out...If I could do most of the work with one brush that would be a game changer! Great video
Thanks so much!! I do have some favourites when using brushes and do migrate towards those. But it is always good to explore 😊💕. I’m such an amateur as I have no idea what half of my brushes are called, lol 😝 they just work for me.
It doesn't matter what your brushes are called. What matters is that you find out what they will do. That's when they become useful beyond applying paint.
I haven't really given it much thought until now, but for about the last year, I have ONLY used a no.2 filbert. I have three, with each one marked up and colour coded on the handle with electricians tape - one for blacks, one for mid-values and another for lights. I even do my preliminaries with them. I move very abstractly (almost in figure 8s at times) and the filbert allows for that. I find flats and rounds a bit too inflexible. All of this is subconscious, as I say, I seldom think about it. It's just how I operate. I need to find another brand though, a hog filbert will last me (at most) twelve weeks. That said, my movements probably age brushes faster.
This was helpful. I am curious about your pallette. Could that be oil paint all around it that never dries? Question: I have fatigue problems with my shoulders and neck. What is the best "stance/posture to relieve this?
Sandra, I don't paint with acrylics, but I do know that hog bristle brushes made for oils don't work well with acrylics. Mostly, the synthetic brushes work best.
Maam shayad aap bahut achche se bata rahi hongi ....😰😰😥😥😢😢🥱🥱but mujhe kuch samjh nahi aarha hai... mera hath English me tang hai.. kya koi artist hai. Jo hindi me video banata hai...please kisi ko pata ho to mujhe bataiye🙏🙏🙏🙏
You’re a wonderful teacher. Ty!

Thanks! You should experiment using a warm-up versus the no warm-up to see what is different.
Ooo, thank you! That would be a really interesting experiment. I'll let you know how it goes! 😀

Thank you! That's my goal!
Thank you so much! I have painted for many years and have migrated toward my favorite brushes but never so thoughtfully. Much appreciated!
You are so welcome!

You are so welcome! Have fun choose your brushes.

It's not so much the tool as how we use it.
I never thought about testing my brushes, I just grab what I think would do the job and end up with a dozen sitting out...If I could do most of the work with one brush that would be a game changer! Great video
Give it a try. And enjoy!
thanks for your useful videos, thanks for your sharing, I can feel your passion and love from your videos, you are the best one!
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching.

Why not investigate the Rosemary brushes.
Thanks for all your videos ☺️💐💐💐
It's a pleasure to do these.

Thank you so much. This is very helpful, as I've had ? about this. Makes sense. Will be fun to explore.
Have fun with it.
Thank you much for sharing these tips.

You're AWESOME!

Question: I have fatigue problems with my shoulders and neck. What is the best "stance/posture to relieve this?
Abigail, see Quick Tips 115 and 172 where I explain that.
Thank you Diane
My pleasure.
What brushes to use for acrylic paints
Sandra, I don't paint with acrylics, but I do know that hog bristle brushes made for oils don't work well with acrylics. Mostly, the synthetic brushes work best.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Thanks
Thanks Dianne... which number is your rosemary brush?
Alka, my favorite is 274.
I wondered if you could explain the techniques used by Delacroix?
Are you asking for his flochetage technique? Or his brush techniques?
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction if I had to chose - flochetage. But both would be wonderful!
Thank you very much.
You are welcome!
Gracias ❤
Have fun with it.
