- Simple Painting lesson using Golden OPEN Acrylics
Please SHARE and Enjoy this 1/2 hr Painting lesson about painting colorful 3D clouds. You will see that I attempted to zoom in on the small painting and as you'll see I "lost my head" ha ha (I need some help with my videography!)
Tutorial Video shows how to paint colorful cumulus cloud formations.
Here I copy a larger painting that I created on Irving Ave in Hyannis Port.
TIPS FOR ACRYLIC PAINTING:
1.) Shade - stay out of the sun and wind somewhat. I use a beach umbrella most of the time using weights or rope to secure it to a couple of stable objects around me.
2.) Use slow-drying acrylics such as "Golden Open Acrylics" or "Slow-Dry Retardant mixed into the paints.
3.) Use a coverable palette and spray bottle to lightly mist paints with water in the mixing tray and palette and keep closed when possible.
4.) Paint quickly and use larger sized brushes (I even suggest using a timer to help remember to work fluidly and not get lost too much in the details)
I hope this helps!
I have a video about this topic - " My Top Tips for Acrylic Painters"
I love to teach and volunteer in schools around the world.
***If you see me out painting usually I have a blanket with drawing materials and various lessons to copy and learn from. Stop in and draw for a while!
I give thanks for the gift I have been given and for the opportunity to share with you!
I hope you find this useful with your painting evolution! Wishing you the best in life! Jim
Hi Mr. Freeheart, thanks for sharing your videos with us all on TH-cam. I’ve watched a handful of videos from your catalogue over the past half-hour or so, and you’ve got a real knack for teaching! As a hobbyist artist, I truly appreciate teachers like you who provide tips and advice to beginner artists at no cost. Thank you for what you do!
Your comments are so kind! I've been learning for decades and I do have a lot to share. I love teaching and when a student is open, growing and expresses appreciation it means the world to me! Thank You! Jim
Clouds have always mystified me. Thanks for the wonderful instruction, sensei.
Thank you Frank! Happy to share what I've learning these past decades!
Hello, Mr. Freehaert, Thanks for your informative videos
I hope one day I will become a talented artist like you.

Thank you for your kind words and I hope you keep on creating, learning and growing! Wishing you all the best in life! Jim
Hi Jim! Thank you for the beautiful video! I wish I had watched this like 200 paintings ago! Which colors did you use to mix up the lowest sky color?
I will send you my list of colors, palette and brushes that I use. New video for all to come soon! Aloha, Julia!
Thank you! I look forward to it. My beloved Isabey brushes have great bristles, but the handle always separates from the metal part - even brand new ones! I must find a new brand. I have to hot glue my brushes or else they fall apart in the middle of a painting! @@jimfreeheart
