I love your explanation of your process and the balance of intuited, and logical which is how we work at our skill level. Thank you Andrea so helpful as I love the CWO with your style.
Hi , I loved this as you showed that it’s not easy to produce something that you feel happy with. …. that you need to find different ways such as leaving it and then coming back to look at it with with fresh eyes.
Thank you so much. I'm a professional artist-I should know these things but life got in the way for a while and I wanted to develop some work I'd done a time ago.You really gave me a way forward. Also at art school in the UK the idea of working with photographs is considered a bit naff but why not? I got a chest infection after working en plein air in February so this is a solution.
You are really entertaining to watch ..not to mention how obviously very talented you are. I love your beautiful abstract painting style! I hope you film your process a lot more often! There are not enough good cold wax/oil artists (IMO) sharing on the tube.
Thank you Regina. It take FOREVER to make these little videos, but I will try to do many more :) Thank you for your feedback. It's always nice to see how they land and meet my audience :)
Hi Andrea Thank you for your informative and inspiring videos which have given me a handle on how to work in this new to me medium. I was very taken with the idea of working on a number of things at once too. I feel I have learnt a lot and look forward to the challenges of putting it all into practice
I love your work method and the way you describe just keep pushing it. Even though I am working in acrylics and inks and crayons for mark making your method is similar to mine. I learnt so much from this first video of yours and will subscribe and follow through on the others. Many thanks from Australia
You're so welcome Jen. Delighted to hear from you all the way over there in Australia where I dream of visiting one day. I've found that many of the techniques used in oil and cold wax can be used in oil and cold wax. I enjoy working in acrylics a lot too. Thank you for subscribing :)
Hi Andrea....i loved this demonstration, you are so able to describe how your process moves about....it is a very challenging thing to try and grasp what the original impetus is when we are drawn to a specific image....thanks so much, and hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. I look forward to seeing more of your work in the new year! best wishes, Linda
Hi Linda, so glad you liked the demo. I think it's important to be able to articulate in some way, not necessarily in words, what inspires you. Which shapes, textures, colors, subject matter. Hope you have a wonderful end of the year.
Hi Andrea thanks for sharing your process, I think I’m allergic to acrylic ( I get itchy, teary eyes, irritation on my nose and also chest tightness) so I looked for another paint to use that’s how I found you, cold wax and oil , I really enjoy using it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Much appreciated.
Thanks for this video. I am an amateur acrylic abstract painter and looking at oil and cold wax. Can you explain what the clean up process is like after you painting is done?
Dear Andrea, thanks for this great video and for being so honest about your feelings during the process of making your paintings. Could you please let me know what you are painting on - is it a board or paper. All the best.
I love your explanation of your process and the balance of intuited, and logical which is how we work at our skill level. Thank you Andrea so helpful as I love the CWO with your style.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting 🥰
Pushing through and not tossing the whole thing. I'm going to work on that. It certainly worked with these four little gems
Yes it’s really good practice to resolve paintings no matter what stage they’re in
Loved watching your process!
@@HaynesMerittArt so glad you found that helpful
I love your abstracted landscapes, i have your pink skies that i adore!
I remember that painting and I’m so glad you have it 💕
For the very second I saw the paintings behind and I subscribed. So beautiful and absolutely in tune with my personal taste. 🥰
So happy to hear that :)

Thanks for this video. I am an amateur acrylic abstract painter and looking at oil and cold wax. Can you explain what the clean up process is like after you painting is done?
I use citrasolve and it's very easy to clean up
are you going to have more online classes this summer 2022
I don't think so, but I am doing one on one classes and programs. Are you on my newsletter list ? Am about to send one out about it
