I think this is one of your best paintings...even though it's an exercise, the composition is solid. I happen to be a real fan of these OPEN acrylics ( even though you may not be using them) and have had great success making them soft and oil-like.
@@MalcolmDewey -- keep up the great work! I've been painting for 50 years, ( I know...people say I don't look 50, but it's true...) selling my art since I was 10. All I do now is nocturnes... and glamorous bygone days.
Marvelous how quick you painted this scene. Shows you can mix acrylic paints and produce texture on the panel. Keep wondering whether to go to acrylic from oil which i usually use. I am drawn to acrylic because of ease of use and none toxic nature and clean up later. Your just the best teacher !
Thank you. It is a dilemma, especially with these slow-drying acrylics. You can get rid of toxic mediums etc for oils these days. Still a hard choice 😊
Your demonstration painting looks really good, it’s amazing how fast you can make these. Well done, thank you for your demonstration on painting light.❤️
Thank you for this !! In your acrylics demonstration (so called...to me it is really nice painting) your technique is very similar as in oils, isn't it ? Wonderful ❤ Plus, I just purchased your two books, what a day !! 😊
Thank you Malcolm. Your painting looks thick, textured and rich. I wonder how much water you add to the paint as you work it in? And what paper/canvas you suggest?
Thank you. Practically no water is required except to wash the brush. Dry off the wet brush, too-use the paint to its maximum. This was painted on a gesso primed MDF panel. If its paper use 140lbs paper minimum. These acrylics can go on practically anything an art store can throw at them 😊
Just two colors? Sure, anything is possible, but if you want an impressionist landscape, you will need the primary color and white. Black is not necessary.

Thank you very much! Yes, I am using Golden Open here, and the slow-drying quality is great - vibrancy is a bonus too.

Thank you Malcolm for this demo. A lovely result of warm and cool, light and shadow
Many thanks Kamlesh!
Quite impressive, as usual. Reminder of things I'd forgotten (eg, ok to delineate w/ white - but not pure [too cold], etc).
Thank you!
Your brush strokes are beautiful- you make it look so easy!
Thank you so much!

How do you get such creamy acrylic paints?
Pick up lots of paint and make sure your brush is clean. Also not too much water.
