I can't wait one day to have fun like this 😆 😆 😆 I just started painting
Ayyo Tube, you will don’t worry! It just takes practice. Th more you paint the better you will be, as long as you learn and understand design fundamentals first. Thanks for watching!
Je vous aime bravo
Merci!
Simplemente totalmente museable.... Nelson J. Reta Cuban painting.
Totalmente Museable
The colors are so rich I thought it was oils! Thank you for sharing your process. For a self taught artist, I feel quite intimidated by abstract art, like there’s some secret only “real” artists are in on. Very rarely do you get the privilege of seeing someone’s process in abstract art! Most of the ones I have seen are either way too complex and expensive material-wise or just kind of trite in a way? Anyways, much love and appreciation from NC!
Sarah, thank you - from NC! I’m self taught too - the only secret to abstract painting is knowing design fundamentals, then implementing that in your work to have a voice different than others. It’s only taken me 30 years! I have several 6 part video series that show you my process step by step.
@@davidm.kesslerfineart1717 had no idea you were in NC! I saw you are teaching a class for arts of the Carolinas-if I can scrounge up the money I’m signing up for it!
@@sarahk3643 thanks- hope to see you

Sylvia, thank you!
David acho lindos suas pinturas abstratas, aprendo muito vendo seus vídeos, obrigado David, um dia vou te conhecer pessoalmente ok?
Reginaldo Souza obrigado!
Beautiful 🌺 no sound FYI
Thank you. Yes, there is no sound.
I love your work and am sad I could not make your workshop when you were in town. Can you tell me please if you let each color dry before applying the next color?
Candy Broxson thanks for watching and following my work. I do not let anything dry and do not paint in layers. I always work wet into wet.
I actually like it a lot. Who cleans the brushes?
I have a 1 man operation so I clean the brushes
Welcome Respected Sir
Why do you never come to California for workshops
I’ve been to CA a couple of times for workshops. It’s along way for a few days of teaching. I am cutting back on my travel beginning in 2021 and That also means shorter ravel trips. I’ll be in New Mexico for two weeks this year teaching - that will be as close as I get.
Aha! I figured you’d need lots of brushes and large amounts of paint! OK so I really want to have a go. Will stick to basics two complimentary colors plus white and black. Where can I find cheap brushes and what size should I buy Appreciate any info👍
Connie Brechtel, brushes are a personal choice - what works for me may not work for you. Do some research, buy a few brushes and test them out. I use natural bristle brushes, but some people prefer nylon. you won't know until you try them.
Great work David. Some of those piles of paint on your palette look lighter than you would normally get from a tube/tub. Do you pre mix more usable colors and store them in tubs? I can see the benefit to this when it comes to spontaneity of the work flow.
Thankyou
Paul Milner some of what you’re seeing on the palette are colors that I have mixed with white, that’s why their lighter. I do mix my own colors and put them in the jars, but I do it because I can’t buy the colors, not because I am making colors more useable. Thanks for watching!
Thankyou for your reply
what colour is the first purple and the second you added please
queen love this painting was dome years ago, so I have no idea what colors I added when - there is no purple in it. It’s red, blue and yellow.
Great painting! I did not hear audio, anyone else have that same problem?
The audio has been removed.
Would you mind sharing the color pink you used? I’ve been looking everywhere for a bright hot pink but haven’t found one I like!
Fluorescent pink and fluorescent magenta - this was several years ago when I was using those colors from Nova Color Paint.
I wich you Could teach me what beautiful work
You can take one of my online workshops where I can teach you how to paint. There is a link to my website in the description below the video.
❤
@@a4n625 thank you!
👌💕
I know you recommend using lots of juicy paint...I enjoy seeing your pallet...but when a painting is done, what do you do with the leftover paint on your pallet?
Lisa Hatch I use paint in jars, so I simply return it to the jars.
Beautiful. Ty.
What type of brushes are u using?
Natural bristle brushes.
@@davidm.kesslerfineart1717 ty for replying. Love your work! Keep on grooving!! 😀💖
Love your art and the colors you use! In an earlier video, you mentioned letting the paint dry so the colors don't get muddy. But I'm watching you paint purple over red and it looks good. Am I confused?
Rhonda Pawlan, I don't paint in layers and like to paint wet into wet. If you are inexperienced in painting it is easier to let it dry rather than paint back into it. It depends what your color combo is. Complementary colors can be dangerous if you don't know how to stay out of the " mud."
Also wondering if you use the same paint brush through the process or switch ? :)
EllieDenise, I use many brushes during a painting session. I usually use a separate brush for each color.
Hi David, as you said you used heavy body paint in your morning 3 but does soft body paint work for the same or other output ?
regards,
Richa Survana, yes it is simply personal preference.
