Making your canvas a bit damp also helps the filler to be moved around your canvas it can be used instead of modelling paste. I also put a coat or so of gel medium to help it stay on the canvas as sometimes depending on the brand it can crack and fall off. Thank you for sharing your process I hope we get to see a finished painting.
@@jadecote6511 not sure! The stuff you put in the gyprock (dry wall) to cover the join up and it gets sanded once it's dry, we call it spakfiller it's sort of putty like but a bit wetter. Hope this helps.
@@lderpt gel medium is used with acrylics and on pretty much all surfaces. It's good to use instead of water, because if you use too much water acrylics start to not bond with the surface of what you're using and can go chalky. It's used when you want to glaze areas in your painting or it can be used as a glue in mix media, it's better than modpodge as its more elastic, mod podge can get brittle and crack. You can also use it as a sealant instead of varnish as it is archival. One of the brands I use comes from an Australian art supply maker called hydrocryl they also make beautiful paint. Other brands that make a gel medium which comes in gloss or matte is liquitex, golden, derivan, Holbein, well you probably get the picture by now. So in google search type in gel medium and a host of brands will come up, then you just need to decide whether you want to use gloss or matte, one TH-cam artist that uses it a lot is Robert Burridge, know as Bob blast on his channel and he uses it with his acrylics and water colours as well as in his collages. I hope this helps you. Cheers!
Most brands sell gel medium, it comes in matt and gloss. You can use it with acrylics instead if using a lot of water other than to wash your brush. The use of a lot of water xan make acrylics go chalky, because it looses the ability to bond on the canvas. Its really good to use with the paint to make a glaze, and you can use it as a protective coat over your painting instead of or as well as a varnish. Another use us to use it as a glue, it doesn't crack or peel because its got a certain amount of elasticity to it. When applying it it looks a bit white and uneven, but it self levels and drys clear, since using it with glazes my paintings look really good. You can also put things in it like sand or salt if you want to add texture, if you're doing a mixed media that has twigs and leaves in it you just need to make sure that the piece is covered with the gel and it won't fall off. I hope this has helped you, thank you for sharing your video. Cheers!
If you want it to be smooth, make the filler roughly 1/4 inch thick, then instead of holding your texture tool at a 90° angle, hold it as low to the canvas as you can.
Ive been enjoying using modelling paste from Michaels. It’s creamy and dries very quickly. I then paint several layers onto for a few days after. Turns out so cool! I even used it on watercolor paper and it turned out amazingly!!
I’m really curious, how does this hold up on the canvas, rather that be plaster or filler does it easily fall off the canvas? I’m worried about this the most
What do you seal your pieces with? I’m working on a very large canvas and using all purpose drywall mud, but I need to seal it in order to add the acrylic paint overtop (just like plaster it’s very porous and sucks up the paint). Any suggestions?
A drywall primer is perfect for this...just like before painting a wall with fresh drywall mud applied. Be sure to get a primer that is specifically for fresh drywall. It is inexpensive overall as well and you won’t need much.
Love ur vedio. Just a question. Can this be put in a piping bag for me fine line and detailing??.. I also want to know if this adheres on a concrete candle jar?
Use filler mixed with gesso it adds to longevity and flexibility you can also use piping bag also thin it with water .just experiment.also wet canvas with spray it adheres to the canvas easier
You can use whatever you like! Using hands definitely gives your more freedom but it's your art piece and its whatever style and technique that you want to express which suits you best 💛

There are other mediums you can use but I use a spray bottle to keep things moist, actually just posted a video on here for a friend so she sees how I did it☺️☺️ if that helps
SO satisfying. I am going to build a canvas and get some filler this weekend. Jokes. I love all the tips in the comments and that twisted tree/root. What is it? Ginseng?
Hello. I’ve tried plaster alone and it cracks on a canvas. I’ve seen also called “art gesso” which I guess should be much less brittle. Have your tried any hack like using regular plaster and glue (to make it less brittle) or something like that? Keep up the good work.

My solution to the plaster breaking is spraying it with enamel afterwards I use a matte finish, but you can use glossy too

Is filler the same as gypsum putty? Or equivalent. I can’t find gypsum putty anywhere it seems..

Add a dash of dish washing soap to the plaster so keep it creamier and easier to work with and mix it.
Yes, this does work and makes it much more manageable
Great tip 😍 thank you so much
The dish washing liquid that we use is green, won't that change the colour?
can I put a dash of soap to a filler?
@@luthomarcianelani Dawn has clear dish soap!
If you want it to be smooth, make the filler roughly 1/4 inch thick, then instead of holding your texture tool at a 90° angle, hold it as low to the canvas as you can.
I appreciate this design and knowing the difference between plaster and filler. Congrats on your channel. i hope it does well.
I've always wanted to know what everyone used. You helped so much. Thank you 💟
I use white paint with the filler to smooth is out, so it is less thick
Thanks for the tip! I do this too sometimes and it really helps!
This was really helpful, thank you for your video, it was so relaxing to watch as well.

If you add just a little pvc Glue and a little acrylic paint, it makes the filler much more pliable and you can really get the smooth defined grooves.
I do this now! It's such a handy trick 😍
Looking for a comparable brand to the diall filler in the United States. Does anyone know?
@@sburns514 Thats what I am looking for as well!!
I’m really curious, how does this hold up on the canvas, rather that be plaster or filler does it easily fall off the canvas? I’m worried about this the most
It would have been nice to have seen the two version side by side to compare.

A drywall primer is perfect for this...just like before painting a wall with fresh drywall mud applied. Be sure to get a primer that is specifically for fresh drywall. It is inexpensive overall as well and you won’t need much.
If you put some magazines or books beneath the inside of your canvas, you will have a more supportive surface to make your pattern ordering on.
If you add a Little water to it first it spreads really great then make your design..

You are adorbs 🥰!! Thanks for this video! I plan on trying it out this weekend
This was the most helpful tutorial for textured art I’ve seen. Thank you!
Tutto questo tempo per parlare senza vedersi nulla, che mattone!!!
But it’s confusing to hear filler when I’ve only heard plaster here.
I hear it being called filler/spackle/plaster/joint compound - it's all so confusing!
I've seen other artists using Tile Mastic for texture.
GREAT VIDEO THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟 DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME
Thanks for watching! xx
So cool 😎
I heard using your hands is easier but I could be wrong bc I am watching a tutorial lol
You can use whatever you like! Using hands definitely gives your more freedom but it's your art piece and its whatever style and technique that you want to express which suits you best 💛
Try spraying an enamel on the plaster after your design is completed. You should use at least two coats
Where did you get the plastic square notched tool? I can only find metal ones on Amazon
I got them from my local hardware store! The metal ones would be better as they would be easier to clean
I personally would have used a fork
I used joint compound and left it to dry overnight but I see some small cracks. That’s pretty normal for those kind of textured art pieces ?

@@DrHelloKitty1982 sure
@@INQUIRINGMINEZcould you post a link?
Thank you, it's nice It could be amazing with coloring 🧚♀️🩵
I think so too but using coloured paints scares me a little if i'm being honest haha 💛
Your instructions are good, at the same time today you have dressed good, keep it up All the best.
Love it ! what is the name of the texture ruler ?😄
Where did you get your plaster comb tool??
Helloy!💝🎈🎈🎈🎈🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💖💖💖
Omg she's so pretty 😍.
For painting plaster, you could try using emulsion paint
Does it actually stick good to the canvas when it’s dry ?
Loved it. It is the imperfection that makes it perfect.
the imperfection will also make it interesting. if it is perfect, it is boring & appears machine made.
Like it. Reminds me of a wall in the Biblical days

Hello where did u get kit? love ur arts
Hi ! I bought most of my stuff from my local hardware store, art shops and pound shops!
انت رائعه لكن لااتحدث لغتك لم افهم ماهو الحشو هل هي معجون الحائط
Does the filler chip at all? I'm worried if I paint over it when its dry and it chips that the white color will of the filler will be visible
What does it called to the one that looks comb? Im actually looking for it but I don't know what it is called 😅
Can it be used on a wall to from leaf printed on the plastered wall?
Simple and awesome technique and texture
Thanks for sharing
👍😊
And thank you for the dish washing soap tip❤
Estuda primeiro.
Wrong, it breaks and crack
These comments are helpful
I spent hours building these beautiful yonis and painted snd they cracked off afrer I sealed 😌
Another great video - Keep doing your thing!!!
Do I need to put anything on the canvas before making texture art?
You need the small tooth spackling tool to make the design
i used plaster of paris and the whole design fell off !!!
How do you call the red thing ?
Hi! I leave in Greece and I am trying to find this filler/ plaster but need to describe it...what exactly is it made of??
Wall putty and filler/spackling are the same things, right?
You did a great job!
Question: do you seal it upon framing and mounting?
Ty
A lovely looking girl.
🎉
Great video, I too have started adding textures. I get ambulances going past when I record GRrrrrr. 🥂
Really dope video!! Loved the indoor plants too!
Hi do you have a shopping list posted ?
Thank you sooo much! So helpful!
Love it! Can you please share where your ring is from ?????
Me: Running to the shop....🏃
How protect your artwork? Do you use varnish or something similar?
Just wondering what that tool that you are using to spread the filer with is called.
you are so pretty
Looks great ❤
Does it crack off and falls after getting dried up?
@@AllThingsGrace Thanks for your reply!
I wanted to try this medium after seeing your creation🤩
👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent art work.
I am from Hyderabad , India
I learn more from your video.

What kind of paint did you use in the end?
Doesn't the filler detatch from the canvas?
Not if applied properly!
Does it need a special preparation first?
@@AllThingsGrace
Isnt this toxic to work with?
Can you add acrylic paint for coloring?
never apologize for your work
Hella pretty..
You are beautiful 😍
They turned out beautiful.
Thanks a lot. Sweet and pleasing voice.Keep it up👍

@Kanza Qamar hi! Almost after drying.
You can prevent that by spraying an enamel on the plaster.
I’ve heard a bit of dish soap added to the plaster would make it easier to work with.
@Kanza Qamar too heavy for plaster
@@hzleyes7087 whats an enamel, is it a coloured spray or
It's beautiful 😍
What’s your Instagram? Love your work!!! Will try this out!
Thank you Grace its a lovely one
Thanks a lot 🤍
Great thank you but wondering if paint on with acrylic paint would it crack?
@@AllThingsGrace thank you
u are amazing...thank u
