This video has a twin. Except I made it about Digital Art: th-cam.com/video/xu7stFSOaqg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aeuzN9IoI48Ckdp- It's a very similar style to this video where I breakdown everything I know about digital art from start to finish. 🖌
thank you for sharing you knowledge with me, and with the rest of the world. i believe people like are the reason the world is where it is right now.. because of people that share their knowledge just for bettering others and no other reason! i appreciate your work. and unrelated.. i love your art! keep at it!
I would love for the next one of these "professional development" series videos on how to spec out what you want to the printers...and your decisions on size choice and why, borders or no borders, stuff like that. Could be a short one, but a would be nice addition to a "how do i do that" ....Make sense ?
This video is all an artist needs. Seriously. Skip art school and just watch this video. I’m a watercolor artist but there’s so many tips in this video that I can use too.
I buy Golden Fluid acrylic in 1 oz sizes. Because the paint is so fluid and so pigmented, these tiny bottles last forever. This is the best paint. It changed my whole painting game.
How do you keep the tops from clogging? I have such an issue with this. I end up opening them and using a plastic pipette to suck up some paint. Love them though!!
Fantastic overview for acrylic painters! I can't tell you how resistant I was to things like prepping my canvases, varnishing, and adding hanging hardware. It really does feel like being an artist when I have an entirely completed painting from soup to nuts.
Photographing varnished paintings tip: buy a polarizing filter. They are cheap and will remove all the white shine from the painting, leaving it beautiful on the whole piece, showing it in all the glory with its juicy colors ;)
Agreed. I made a whole video on Circular Polarization Filters for artists a couple years ago. Artists who film or photograph their art need to know about those things!
I bought a polarizing filter for this and it’s weird because in certain settings it does amazing at taking glare off of tables and flat surfaces but when I go to actually shoot the art it does nothing. Tried rotating the filter and nothing happened. 😢
@rachelb1119 you need to rotate it every time you change position of your camera. It rotates freely so you can slowly change the angle depending on how much glare you need to delete
@@rachelb1119I’ve noticed when you’re straight on to you art they don’t do much. They do a lot when you are at an angle especially when the light is coming from the opposite direction of your camera
I think it’s doesn’t work in every lighting situation. I’ll definitely have to play with it more to figure out the best setup. I was turning the filter but couldn’t find a sweet spot for the situation I was in. I’ll have to experiment more and see if I can take advantage of the filter. Otherwise I just use the old stand-by… take the art outside on a cloudy day to take pictures.
Just started my painting journey and the Sta Wet palette was a GAME CHANGER. 🔥 makes it more fun and less frustrating, especially so I’m not wasting my Golden acrylics
Bro, I’m an artist. I put my tools down for a few years. You motivated me to pick my tools up and create again with your intriguing nuanced approach to motivational speaking. I instantly and immediately liked and subscribed. Thank you.
i was wondering why this has less than a million likes and views but realize its been about a week since posting. literally all the advice i needed that i both knew and didn't know needed. thank you for the perfect video !!!
what a great video, been overthinking and dealing with an especially judgy blank canvas for a while now and this was the perfect video to cure the creative block.
Thank you for this talk Ten! Without knowing you have been with me since my early days as an artist. Nowadays my work is getting more recognised and so I watch less tutorials videos, but every time I come here to watch yours, it reminds me of my early days and I feel so proud and grateful. That's all because of you my man! Thank you so much!
Great video! I’m not even a painter and loved watching this just because I’m interested in the artistic process and this was really cool, informative and held my attention. Well done sir.
I’ve made my own transfer paper many times. It works very accurately for me :) just make sure to add the graphite directly on the back of the drawing you want to transfer.
Honestly, thank you for all of the tips…but the best one that has now helped save time is the idea of transfer paper!!! How did I NOT know about transfer paper???!! I have been driving myself crazy transferring the old skool manual way and it is hell!! THANK YOU TEN! 😅😂😊 Oh and the3 compartment paint bucket is GENIUS!!
As a woodworker, +1 for sealing both sides of your project. It may not be much of a risk to something like a wood canvas but you risk warping the project if you don't do it (learned this the hard way and ruined hours of work).
Can’t believe you just give away all this for free ! And made me laugh too !! 😂 Thank you from the bottom of my heart ! 🥰 Greetings from a starving artist in Denmark 🇩🇰💚🐅😊
The first part had me shouting references people references as Kaypea always does. She makes sure I never forget to get plenty of source material. That really was super helpful. Thanks Tenhun. I've bought a few things from you, UK shipping is horrible as usual, but I have to say the picture I bought my son for his 21st, he absolutely loves it. I'm a clay artist who's about to try canvas work for the first time soon so that really was amazingly helpful.
I absolutely loved this video, it had it all....humor, advice, knowledge and a whole lot more. Thank you so much for putting this video together and making my day. Merry Christmas 🙂
I’m glad I’ve stayed subbed to your channel since 2019 for me to appreciate how far you’ve come and really value videos like these!! You’re awesome. Though I consider myself a mixed media artist, I’ve learned something new. Keep up the great work! God bless you.
As a graduated "come loud" from ten hun's online acrylic painting course, I endorse every part. The fact that he will email his thoughts on your progress and work is bonusville !!!
A brilliant rendition of the rocks! What a great technique, I ‘ve used this for highlights on water, but I will definitely try it on the rocks! Even for ice. Endless possibilities!❤ Thanks!
Actually excellent and useful tips, 10/10 my boy. Yes wood is the best to paint on for acrylics for all the durability you mentioned. I jigsaw and rout mine to get away from the rectilinear world. Sealing: WOOD, all sides, backs, insides. Wood will draw in moisture over time and contract and expand so seal it, cheap anything paint on the back is fine, don't use expensive stuff. Sealing: CANVAS, just the exposed faces and sides. Canvas needs to breathe, leave the back exposed. This also allows future peeps to revive a sagging canvas by applying hot water with a sponge on the rear to get the weft and weave to shrink, thus tightening it again.
Great video! Thanks for the awesome acrylic painting tips, especially the one about viewing your progress from different perspectives - it’s a game changer!
Great video. I've been painting for almost a decade and have experienced almost all you say. I'm trying to do more imaginative work but planning takes so long and I don't have much free time anymore. I'm a full time teacher and have two little kids. I want to try using digital art to plan my paintings and then print and trace the artwork like you did. Thank you for sharing your tips!
One of your more entertaining vids! Great job educating. As a wood worker myself, for anything I make that hangs like a painting: I like to make and attach a French cleat - hidden inside the back, so that you can hang the cleat and subsequently the item on the wall so that it is level. Bonus with this method is that it holds all 4 sides flush with the wall instead of leaning away from it I love the tiger pack btw 👍
As a guy with a woodworking background, I can confirm that sealing both sides of a wood panel is definitely the way to go. Sealing only one surface is bad, because it'll transfer the bulk if the woods movement to the unprotected area, concentrating, thus increasing, its' effect. Not good. Also, as to paint drying in the bases of your brushes (heel clogging) , old school sign painters have a fix for this. Clean your brushes as best you can, then dip them in lard oil. This will keep any residual paint from hardening. Wash the brush in soap and water prior to the next use and you're in biz. I've heard talk that the oil can damage the brushes over time, but haven't had any problem with this. Great video!
I rough wash my brushes after use and then leave for half an hour standing in hand gel - the sort we've had since covid, cheap as chips will do - then wash in warm soapy water, rinse and apply a tiny amount of hair conditioner. Takes no time and keeps your brushes happy.
The first stretched canvas I ever bought was incorrectly primed so I've been gessoing my own right from the beginning, sometimes 8 or more coats. To get gesso really smooth you need a crescent shaped bit of plastic like a protractor or dough spreader for small canvases up to about 20" and a window squeegee for canvases bigger than that. I've only been painting for a couple of years but I've found I still work better on paper than on canvas.
Even if i wasnt trying to learn anything bout art u are just a damn good creator beautiful edit eberything id watch a deep dive u make on doing taxes or cleaning a bathroom. One of best youtube vids ive seen man great job
I’ve been getting serious about painting for about a year now, and have been using techniques I learned from tenhundred last year. I feel like this video answered questions about SO MANY of the super specific things I’ve struggled with over the last year and really fleshed out my process. My new years resolution is to create so much art🙏🏼 Thank you tenhundred for being so inspiring and fun:)
hello 👋 I've been following your channel for a time.. I just want to say you're one of my favourite artists..although I don't like acrylic paint😅 I'm a watercolour artist and i would like to see you paint in watercolour 😊.. can you do a special episode for watercolour and another medium like colour pencil and markers and pastel..just for a change...thanks 😊
This video was amazing and detailed and my new gold standard for how I want to be introduced to new mediums. I want this for oils, for gouache, for spray paint, all of it! Thanks brother.
I’m late to the game here but this is honestly the most amazing video. I’m just starting an art journey with no training and no artist friends I can ask but this video made me think I have some tools now and can go for it and start in a proper way - thank you so very much.
I have been painting for over 22 years, and for the past 8 years I have been a full time professional muralist and painter. There were several things in this video that I didn't know yet 🤯 I will not specify which things, but let's just say that I just did an order with my preferred art store for a Sta-wet palet and some Golden Medium Matte 🙃 Thanks for the inspiration!
Awesome stuff and advice. My daughter and I are still over here clinging to every drop. She’s always excited to see what you’re working on and that we use a lot of the same supplies 🤙🏼🎨🎣
I think that in addition to the picture, it's worth noting how difficult it was to make such a cool installation, I'm just shocked, I respect you for the work you did, thank you. An artist from Russia .
This was an excellent video for a scared beginner who is just discovering they might actually have some talent and are ready to go deeper. Your humorous commentary kept me engaged to the end. Loved the peanut butter /savage statement. Looking forward to watching more of your material!
Hullo Peter, I enjoyed this video much more than I thought I would! Well done SIR! I might offer one tip for painting the reverse side of your art? Yes, you can seal with Gesso. You might consider using a clear gesso or sealer. This will allow the colors on the front (Of canvas) not to be influenced by the color on the back! I like to use a clear gesso to protect the backside and integrity of the wood panel. In some cases I use a regular wood preservative to seal and protect! I often use store brand paints. Like Blick Studio acrylic paints! They lower costs with less pigments or lower quality ingredients. yet Acrylic paints must have a certain level of medium or it will not hold together! SO even the cheapest brands like FolkArt are great for coloring say sculptures! or other craft items!! Grand Video Peter, I hope you do more basic tutorial kinds of videos maybe a simple set up for a mural? You are rather famous for that eh? YES!
If my teacher took your teaching approach, I believe I would be at MIT right this moment. Your creativity just flows, from painting, to filming, even scripting. Adding to the fact that you are educating us in the process. *Chef's Kiss"
Excellent video. Comprehensive and super helpful. I am a very experienced 3D/mixed media artist looking to heavily branch into acrylic painting and this was the primer I needed. Thank you.
Always love when you post content! 🎉 Something I’ve been doing for a little bit now, adding a dab of burnt sienna (or whatever color) to my gesso. Maybe you’re not suppose to do this, but it definitely helps with the undercoat, maybe even skipping the undercoat step.
nice info and great video. a couple of other things to consider. there's almost never a time where i trash a brush. old worn out brushes have a place in the tool box as well. they're for dry brushing and/or use for experimental mediums you don't want to use a good brush on. you can trim them for a specific project or need that a store bought brush may not fit your needs with. the other thing is always be archival with how you paint. this is even true for artist just starting out. you never know when your break through will come so it's always best to learn and start by being archival. i consider it part of the foundation when learning to paint. it can help you learn the chemistry that may inform you later and you don't want to develop a style and career as an artist and find that after 10 years all your old paintings are separating from the canvas. i say this because using water on acrylic is fine but you can use too much and diluting the paint too much weakens the binders that help hold it to the canvas or material you're painting on.
also relative to paint the expensive paints vs the cheap ones are made differently. the pigments aren't as strong and the cheaper paints have more ingredients used more so as filler instead of an actual ingredient that helps the intensity of the color and/or the binders that help hold that paint to the canvas.
Your comic timing and editing skills are really up there with the best! You really brighten up my day! And thanks for all the nice and wonderful tips you have so generously given out for free. God bless!
😮 so helpful. Your process is pretty simple compared to some acrylic painters with all the different small tubes of paint with crazy names. This makes way more sense 🙏
I paint in oils and despite this, there is gold(en) in this vid. Tenhun is sharing some great tips here. LIsten and enjoy! Thanks for putting this up and sharing the love...
That was a wealth of knowledge that you just handed a bigging painter---and I seriously appreciate it! PS I love your art battles, it's so fun to see what everyone's different idea will be.
Loved this! A whole bunch of stuff I'd like to implement in my process. Thought I pretty much had my process down. Good to have some tips on how to improve! Cheers
Thank you for sharing your tips, they really help. You really are an amazing artist, but my favorite is how unique and resourceful you are. Ten Hundred, would you ever consider accepting a gentle challenge from one your viewers?
Great video! I've been a fan for Golden as well for about 10 years. Their isolation coat product is great - I just wish they made a sprayable version of it!
Great vid, the algorithm brought me here, new subscriber now! I also like to take a pic of my painting and change it to black and white to check on the values.
Hey brother, you know what’s missing? A tutorial where you show how you create these epic, polished tutorial videos-how you edit, set up the cameras, and everything in between. It would be an honor to learn from a master like you❤
This video has a twin. Except I made it about Digital Art: th-cam.com/video/xu7stFSOaqg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aeuzN9IoI48Ckdp-

A Baumgartner reference + breadcrumbs at the end for future conservators, so they have an example of how you handled signatures? Excellent.

Use a foam roller for the sides. Nice and even, plus it reduces the brush strokes on the painting surface.
This man can split atoms with his raw talent. Mad props, brother!
Great video! Thanks for the awesome acrylic painting tips, especially the one about viewing your progress from different perspectives - it’s a game changer!
15:34 it works!! I used this method after I finish with a fashion sketch and is time to illustrate it on a nicer paper 😊
What a great video, it was a lot of work, 🙏🏻😍Great part when you mentioned to set the back ready to hang 🩵Sweet 🎉
Great video! I work as a artist and in an art store, and Ten Hun just dropped some facts on y'all, straight pearls!
Baumgartner for the win! Also, yes on wood panels. Hate painting in textured loose drums. Stupid cloth canvas. Great video!
Love the new background that you built in the studio 🔥
Thanks bro!

Great tips thank you. Taking a photo and looking at it on your phone certainly does make you see the problems. Love what you do.

nice info and great video. a couple of other things to consider. there's almost never a time where i trash a brush. old worn out brushes have a place in the tool box as well. they're for dry brushing and/or use for experimental mediums you don't want to use a good brush on. you can trim them for a specific project or need that a store bought brush may not fit your needs with. the other thing is always be archival with how you paint. this is even true for artist just starting out. you never know when your break through will come so it's always best to learn and start by being archival. i consider it part of the foundation when learning to paint. it can help you learn the chemistry that may inform you later and you don't want to develop a style and career as an artist and find that after 10 years all your old paintings are separating from the canvas. i say this because using water on acrylic is fine but you can use too much and diluting the paint too much weakens the binders that help hold it to the canvas or material you're painting on.
also relative to paint the expensive paints vs the cheap ones are made differently. the pigments aren't as strong and the cheaper paints have more ingredients used more so as filler instead of an actual ingredient that helps the intensity of the color and/or the binders that help hold that paint to the canvas.
Wow so many good tips so i do not have to try and error. Thanks TenHun! ♥
Seriously this was super helpful and I appreciate it
Will share with my daughter 👏🏽👏🏽
Your comic timing and editing skills are really up there with the best! You really brighten up my day! And thanks for all the nice and wonderful tips you have so generously given out for free. God bless!
😮 so helpful. Your process is pretty simple compared to some acrylic painters with all the different small tubes of paint with crazy names. This makes way more sense 🙏
A great master class from the intellect of a humble and entertaining Master Painting Artist. One feels motivated even if one is not an artist.
I paint in oils and despite this, there is gold(en) in this vid. Tenhun is sharing some great tips here. LIsten and enjoy! Thanks for putting this up and sharing the love...
That was a wealth of knowledge that you just handed a bigging painter---and I seriously appreciate it! PS I love your art battles, it's so fun to see what everyone's different idea will be.
This has been very helpful to a beginner. Thanks.
The BEST video in the history of videos!
Thank you for this value packed video. Love all your tips, and your sense of humor. You make it fun to learn!
Amazing and educational video. Well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Loved this! A whole bunch of stuff I'd like to implement in my process. Thought I pretty much had my process down. Good to have some tips on how to improve! Cheers
Thank you for sharing your tips, they really help. You really are an amazing artist, but my favorite is how unique and resourceful you are. Ten Hundred, would you ever consider accepting a gentle challenge from one your viewers?
This is the best i've ever seen. Well dine. You are amazing. Amateur South Africa....best wishes
Love the humor, as much as the helpful tips
Great video! I've been a fan for Golden as well for about 10 years. Their isolation coat product is great - I just wish they made a sprayable version of it!
Love it man we watch your stuff all the time me and my kids!
What a great video thank you for sharing your art
Great vid, the algorithm brought me here, new subscriber now! I also like to take a pic of my painting and change it to black and white to check on the values.
Very cool, so many great pointers. YIC BABY!!!
Hey brother, you know what’s missing? A tutorial where you show how you create these epic, polished tutorial videos-how you edit, set up the cameras, and everything in between. It would be an honor to learn from a master like you❤
The yellow + white! YESSSSSS Thanks for this!
Thanks, for the painting advice. I have been practicing the last 3 years.
Thank you, that was so helpful (and fun!). I just found you, and you got a new subscriber, mister.
Love watching your vids! Been wanting to get more into acrylic, so thanks for the tips 🥰
Thank you for this. I loved it and am kinda motivated again!
