At last a beginners tutorial that’s actually for beginners. I am just starting, first time painter at 54. I learned so much from this thank you! Plus I just love that it’s okay to use a drawing as a base, for those of without a natural talent but lots of enthusiasm .
I have many many turtorials that are for beginner beginners as well as intermediate artists. The reason we started the beginner painting course was to get our members to where they can paint some of the intermediate paintings. We hope the course helps you get there. In the meantime, you can go to our website and check out all our 1 hoot paintings here theartsherpa.com/ Just click on videos, then the 1 hoot link 💛
Thank you Thank you Thank you for all your great info you give in this video. I am so anxious to start painting on canvas ! ! Such great tips you give !! 🤗🤗
I just ran into your comment. After a year are you still pursuing art and painting and are you successful like you may have expected? I'm 66 and dabbled in art throughout my life but not painting. I'm wanting to give it a shot. What are my odds? Since you started late as well? Lol
Got, you beat !! I am, 70 and just beginning! Haha 😂 So, happy to find this tutorial!!! I, have probably like you and many others wasted to much time on listening to jokers videos and learned nothing except I wasted that uch time of my life I can never get back !!!!!!
After searching through several videos, I finally found this one, and it is exactly what I have been looking for. I am an absolute beginner with acrylics and had no idea where to start. There were enough tips in this one video that were covered well that I can start my painting today with confidence. Thank you!
Amazing tutorial.! I love it and I am saving it so I can watch it over and over until, I finally get all the teachings to heart. Thank you and looking forward to more. I am a pre
Yesss , that's what i want to hear and see when i search " basics of painting". Why there are so many videos regarding easy painting tutorials but not many videos like these. Thank you so much ❣️. I'm subscribing right away 🌟
“And that’s a great strategy if you’re trying to, like, have a nice relaxing time through an entire painting “ 🤣🤣🤣 Everything about this moment is gold and so relatable
I have been using one of the cheapest silicone cutting mats from the dollar store for a paint pallet. I simply trim it to the size of the underlying sponge sheet. Snap the top. Paint stays ready to go. Inadvertently dries? Just peel it off.
Thank you! I love doing sports and arts. I’m only 11, and I just started in painting! I actually finished one of my paintings today! I found this video very inspiring and helpful. Thank you! 🥺✨😁
I watch a LOT of videos about lots of things and when I wanted to get past my fear of starting to paint again, I looked for a good mentor. I found her in the Art Sherpa!
Thank you for a great tutorial. Started painting about 18 months ago. Had no idea what I was doing. No one to ask. Learning all the time. Please do more of videos like this.
when i'm stuck and i can't concentrate on painting or i straight up cannot create anything i always go back to watch tutorials and stuff like that because i feel like i'm being productive in some way, and this? THIS. This was SO calming and nice and i feel so good and ready to paint thank you
Thank you! Its been years since I did painting. I started with no knowledge at all but just grab a brush and paint away. Knowing these basics really helped me a lot! Ypu rock!
Thank you for making this video! Like the person before me, I found this is exactly what I was looking for! During covid 19 quarantine I have been trying my first attempts at acrylic painting and have created a few works I am kind of proud of as a beginner but have a LONG way go and a lot to learn. The skills and knowledge you share here is super helpful!!! Glad you include things that maybe other painters know but beginners may not. Thank you again!
Thankyou. I am 77 and a complete beginner. Your video is so helpful even to looking after brushes. It was wonderful to hear you say you admired beginners, l needed that as l am still plucking up courage to tart.
@user-gz3kz8cp5u, Thank you for sharing your journey with us. At 77, and as a complete beginner, you've shown immense courage in taking up painting, and I'm truly honored to be part of your artistic exploration. Your brushes are essential tools, and looking after them well can make your painting experience even more rewarding. Don't be afraid to take those first steps; remember, every artist starts somewhere. I admire your spirit, and I believe in your potential. Your creativity is a gift waiting to be unwrapped, and your age simply adds wisdom to your unique perspective. Keep nurturing that courage, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need support. Wishing you a joyful painting journey, Cinnamon
I've tried painting a few times and now that I'm watching this, I can't count the number of times I've thought "so THAT'S where I went wrong!" Thank you for being so thorough
Thank you for posting this video. I’m just learning how to paint and am starting off with acrylics. I did not want to get bogged down into formal lessons because my ideas for canvas or board are very personal. Your videos are going to help a lot. Thanks!
Ty so much for this video Cinnamon! I'm fairly new to canvas acrylic painting and this really helps. Some people on here are SO rude using a thumbs down. This world needs prayer more than ever. ❤️🌈 Have a great day Cinnamon!
Thank you so much for your video. I didn't start trying to paint till late in my sixties and was on the verge of giving up as I felt my work was far too 'flat'. However I have learnt so much from watching this and you have inspired me to keep trying. Your words are so encouraging and I now know that I CAN do it. Thank you again 💕
I’ve been going through a very depressing time and just wanted to get it out that you are such a supportive and uplifting person.. love everything you’ve got going on and thank you for telling us strangers on the internet you’re proud of us ♥️ those few words make such a huge ripple effect across the interwebs! 🙏
Thanks for a great tutorial for real beginners! I've been doing watercolors for a couple years and decided to try acrylics. You covered everything I didn't know I didn't know about acrylics, from squeezing the paint out of the tube and getting it on the brush to putting it on the paper, and cleaning up afterwards--all the media-specific topics you absolutely need to know but everyone else assumes you already do. And you even covered painting leaves! This is the very first acrylic tutorial I watched and I'm so glad I found it. Thanks again.
Thank you for this. I've been watercolor painting for a few years, but have never used acrylics and this was just what I needed! Even down to getting the paint out of the tube!
Love that you make it clear that tracing for a light outline is NOT cheating. I mean, even the greats sometimes used a camera obscura to project an image on their canvas to get an outline centered properly. The main one I know of was Da Vinci. 😉👍
A fantastic acrylic painting for beginners tutorial! Just amazing Cinnamon! Easy to understand, great tips... you did an amazing job of covering this topic for beginners! ... as a beginner or advanced painter we all need good brushes. I consider my brushes an investment.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I used to paint with oils many moons ago but always wanted to learn acrylics. I always loved the blending ability with oils but now I feel confident enough to give acrylics a shot! I feel an amazing vibe from you. Blessed be! ❤
I’m retired. Other than a few arts and crafts with my kids at church for the children’s ‘sermon’ I’ve done. And at, sometime it turn out really good, better than I could imagine. Lots of teachers online but some move to quickly. Some speak the language of the artist but fail to adequately define the words. You are one of the best. Thank you for sharing your talent in a down to earth 🌎 manner. You also show us things we can be successful in doing on the first try! May not be the best leaf or rose, and your husband may think it’s an abstract. Lol 😆!!! Thanks . Look forward to all your lessons and getting stuff done. I had to retire in 2014 for medical disability and I thought painting was something I could or would excel in. Did what you shouldn’t do of course. Went out to Micheals Crafts and stared buying out the acrylics and water color aisle. Stayed away from oils as I heard it was difficult to master, like the others would be a breeze. I’ve always wanted to paint and thought I’d be good. Finding you here may help my wishes come true..
@@CarlottaART WHAT??? i want to see the canvas, see her demonstrate what she's talking about. After 5 seconds we know what she looks like, please....show the canvas!!
After watching several videos of other artists (who are good)...YOU are THE BEST!!!! I'm a newbie, self teaching during the Covid lockdown and YOU ROCK!!!
Fantastic video for any beginner, like myself. I have always wanted to try painting, but was one who let, "intimidation," get the best of me. However, I am determined to try. So, here goes. It just so happens I was gifted paints for Christmas. So excited and a little nervous. I appreciate your words of wisdom. You are amazing at instructoring!
This is a wonderful video. So helpful! I love that you make it a point to let us beginners know that it’s ok to be...well, beginners! I just got all of my supplies and I’m ready to go! Wish me luck!!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. This is great information for everyone. I’ve been painting for awhile but have never learned the “basics” of the game. Again, thanks and keep ‘em comin’!
All my life I've been watching the wrong tutorials, omg! You are heaven sent. Thank you! I did a Starry Night painting you taught, and now my family thinks I'm a professional artist lol! My hat n bow off to you my dear.
this things make sense after all...all the topic and technique, from the beginning till the end is very useful i love the video and its not boring to watch.
I love your energy around art, it's clear you've been on this journey of creativity for a while. A friend brought over acrylics over the weekend and it got me hooked but I was just experimenting with no guidance. After this, I'm excited to get my own set of tools to practice everything you have taught me today! Thank you!
I was bought a load of acrylic paint brushes and sponges for christmas and as someone who has only used pastels til now I was very daunted. Your videos have made me feel more at ease although I will be starting small. Thank you.
This is the BEST tutorial I've watched. Just started painting folkart scenes and didn't have the first clue. Bought everything from Gesso, acrylic 16×20 paper, different size canvas set, 30 different acrylic paint colors, 2 sets of brushes, an easel, a paint and pallete set. Lol...now I just have to learn what I'm doing. Fingers crossed.
Oh my god first time ever someone showed HOW to trace a picture....and I don't feel like an idiot doing it. Love it. LOVE YOU!!!!!!! strugling a whole day trying to paint something but just messing my paints, brushes, clothes, table...everything in paint Iwas so frustrated and stressed out...I think my dog was aswell. I am finally relaxing when watching and listening you just how to use a brush. So Awesome!
I'm interested to learn ...beginning from scratch ...I'm thankful i found this tutorial . Start from the beginning very helpful for those who really want to learn the craft , from the things to remember ,the materials to use and how to use them, and even the technic on how to blend colors , the brush stokes and everything , i hope I'll be able to learn ..🙏
Well aren’t you just fabulous! I’m starting painting on Tuesday(waiting for my paints) but I feel you have already given me a head start 😘 thank you so much xx Emma (uk)
I have been fortunate enough to "stumble" across a couple of your videos now. Love them! so clear and concise filled with info I need to know as an absolute beginner at 74! Will be hunting out as many as I can find. My first couple of efforts have been hilarious and I've learnt a lot from making all those "mistakes". Definitely no Rembrandt, but loving the process.
This is a fabulous tutorial and full of the types of tips I was looking for! So many times I get hung up on seemingly tiny things like, "Is this too much paint to put on my paintbrush?" and "Is this the right way to blend these things together?" - Thank you for making this so easy to follow!
I started learning how to paint not a week before quarantine hit my area. Started with watercolor and have been practicing as regularly as possible but it's really not the medium I care for. Searched around for weeks before I settled on acrylic and found your videos. You've got me so pumped! I can't wait to start this weekend and follow along with your videos! (bonus-you look just like my grandmother, mother, and me...except with better hair!!)
Hi Beautiful Blue! I love your back to Blue I love it on you! Just got back on line , house got hit by lightning when we were in church, Finally got internet, and most things replaced, wasn’t too bad as it didn’t take out most major appliances. I love your teaching constant. I find myself hearing you do this or not that when I’m painting. Your the Best teacher and I’ve learned so much in the short three yrs since I found you. I was so lost without my Artsherpa and Ginger Cook❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️Now it’s all rainbows from here❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌹🌹🌹
Thank you Cinnamon. I restarted painting after 30 years. I was following your Acrylic April but just found this video. It is so helpful@ Thank you so much for all you do to help people learn!
It was exactly what i was looking for, simple explanation, useful tips, positive vibe and easy contact with the camera makes it really enjoyable to watch :) thank you
Just wanted to say that your a great teacher! Your pleasant to listen to and you make it easy to follow you! Thank you so much for your time and encouragement.❤️ I also love that you do not have annoying distracting music playing in the background, that would drive me nuts! God Bless
I am so freaking happy I found this video\channel within Alllll the other TH-cam videos. This one is so comprehensive and informative…. ThankYou, Art Sherpa!! ☺
Thank you so much! I’m not an artist but would like to dabble now that I’m retired! You have covered EVERYTHING I will need to know! I’m grateful to you!
Oh my gosh thank you!!!!! I stopped painting a while ago cause i kept waisting so much paint by not loading it properly but no one ever explains how to load the brush! Thank you so much!
I love your tutorials !! You are so informative and so passionate about painting ! Thank you so much for explaining everything so well & Happy Painting !
That is really lovely to read and inspiring to make more - i have a 30 day painting series coming up in april but right after in May Tip videos will be back in a big way
Hello I've always wanted to paint and at 45 I did. My youngest son turned 18 so I felt free to embark on this journey. And I'm having the time of my life! I've learned so much already I fell in love w/ paint pouring it's very exciting. Even the most skilled veteran artist can't foresee there results 100%. The unknown is scary, & exciting, challenging, & super rewarding⚜️. I'm so glad I jumped in w/both feet. Sorry I was rambling I want you to know your my 1st art🖌️🎨⚜️ class of any kind💯🎉🤘and I learned alot thank you and going to keep watching you. Hopefully I grow as a artist and I know I'm giving it my all thank you for making this series I can't afford art classes otherwise. See you soon lol
I just watched another beginning painting video but yours resonates with me much more. I've been painting for so many years but want to get back to basics and learn the more technical side. Thank you for breaking everything down!
Finally a video to give me the confidence to start painting ! Ever since I can remember I loved to draw. Now that my kids are older and I have more time I want to start painting. I didn’t know where to start and had the fear of ruining canvases and brushes. But after seeing this video I can finally start with less on my mind and just go for it. Your awesome love your videos ❤️ …also this is my first review on anything ever ! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I've been doing beginning watercolors, but wanted to add acrylic for some mixed media. I have no idea what to do with water. This was so helpful!
Just a tip I started using. I use a poly-plate as a palette. So to keep the paint "fresh" on the plate when I leave, I just get another plate and flip it upside down on top of the paint/plate. Keeps the paint fresh for a couple hours. I think it is the open air that will dry out the paint so keeping it covered helps a lot.
Wonderful! and glad it was helpful. If this was helpful you might enjoy the beginner course on the website theartsherpa.com/BeginnerAcrylicPaintingCourse 💕

I love your teaching constant. I find myself hearing you do this or not that when I’m painting. Your the Best teacher and I’ve learned so much in the short three yrs since I found you. I was so lost without my Artsherpa and Ginger Cook❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️Now it’s all rainbows from here❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌹🌹🌹

Cinnamon, what a blessing to have you demonstrate these techniques . i almost gave up until i came across your video. Ty.
You are so welcome💚
A great introduction to help me decide whether to venture into acrylic painting. Thank you!
Hello I've always wanted to paint and at 45 I did. My youngest son turned 18 so I felt free to embark on this journey. And I'm having the time of my life! I've learned so much already I fell in love w/ paint pouring it's very exciting. Even the most skilled veteran artist can't foresee there results 100%. The unknown is scary, & exciting, challenging, & super rewarding⚜️. I'm so glad I jumped in w/both feet. Sorry I was rambling I want you to know your my 1st art🖌️🎨⚜️ class of any kind💯🎉🤘and I learned alot thank you and going to keep watching you. Hopefully I grow as a artist and I know I'm giving it my all thank you for making this series I can't afford art classes otherwise. See you soon lol
thank you so much im so happy i could help!
Just found you as I am looking to start a new art adventure in my 60's! Loved your tutorials. Thank you and I look forward to painting with you again!
Welcome!💔
I just watched another beginning painting video but yours resonates with me much more.
I've been painting for so many years but want to get back to basics and learn the more technical side. Thank you for breaking everything down!
💖💖
This is so informative and also YOU ARE CHARMING 🌹💕🙏 thanks for the video !!!
What a great video. Short, punchy introduction. Straight to the detail. Informative and didactic, whilst being inclusive. Great.
Im new at this and I absolutely love your videos. I'm learning a lot!!! Thank you
Finally a video to give me the confidence to start painting ! Ever since I can remember I loved to draw. Now that my kids are older and I have more time I want to start painting. I didn’t know where to start and had the fear of ruining canvases and brushes. But after seeing this video I can finally start with less on my mind and just go for it. Your awesome love your videos ❤️ …also this is my first review on anything ever ! Thank you!
Wow that is so sweet perla acevedo Thank you very much
What a sweet teacher!
😍😍
Thank you so much! I've been doing beginning watercolors, but wanted to add acrylic for some mixed media. I have no idea what to do with water. This was so helpful!
Thank you so much. Learning these basics gives me courage. At 65 I'm determined to paint.
Lisa Hart That is awesome thank you
This was wonderful video for the basics . Looking forward to more of such tutorials.thank u so much .
My pleasure 💚
Just a tip I started using. I use a poly-plate as a palette. So to keep the paint "fresh" on the plate when I leave, I just get another plate and flip it upside down on top of the paint/plate. Keeps the paint fresh for a couple hours.
I think it is the open air that will dry out the paint so keeping it covered helps a lot.
GREAT INFO!!! WOW!!! your hair looks AWESOME!!!! the blue , the style really opens your face. LOVE IT!!!!!!
Just found your channel. Brand new to painting. Love this.
You are so Welcome Debbie
