    This painting, and these videos of you making it and explaining your thoughts, are just going to mean the world to your daughter for the rest of her life. What a wonderful gift to give her. What a loving dad. And thanks for sharing it with us, too.

    Yes you are like me as I create a disaster in the beginning and I dont stop until I turn it around. Art is about solving problems that present to you. Sometimes I cant turn it around but not that often.

    interesting that people are liking the roller effect - it's not for me, not into the mechanical repetition of it, but i generally love the way you work and have learned a lot - it's the freedom/non-attachment particularly. Obviously you also have great sense of colour combining! thanks a lot - I don't know how many of your videos i watched but probably most of them!

    Hey Nick, I’m loving this series of two videos - so helpful and inspiring! Can you talk a little bit about how on the one hand you say that it’s important to like what you’re doing and to be doing things that you like. On the other hand, you say that often you Don’t like what you’re doing, and that that’s a good thing. Thank you!!!!!!!❤

      You could give a picture you were not pleased with a wash down even leave drips running down, when dry make your shapes with extra large pastels,this works well but you do need good quality paper. Chansons is fairly heavy duty I hope you have fun!😊

  • @datadata7144
    @datadata7144 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I get some good shaping by not mixing my acrylic colors properly. You did that with the burgundy on the first layer. With acrylics, you have to minutely blend a lot to make it interesting. The oils seem to just smear better.

    Watching this video a second time through. Not being familiar with your podcasts and approach to abstract painting, I did find it enlightening and engaging. There were areas that I was liking very much which you obliterated and I'm glad I hung in to see your whole process and the creation of space and textures. A bit like Rauschenberg but the "collage" sense is pure paint.

    For me: abstract painting is like a trip that you dont know where to go...and ends by the last brush stroke of the painter willing not to add any more...I am wondering your attitute during the process...especially when you are not happy with the stroke and stain that you put on? Prefer to end the painting or find a solution that balances the comp?

      That’s my understanding of energy- you can feel the difference yourself between carefully placed marks and the more uncontrolled wandering or splash gestural marking.

    Hi Nick!
    I’m new to your channel, and it came at a good time. I have an important question, but you need a bit of back story first.
    Long story super short: art all through my school years, chose cosmetology as my career for 38 hrs. Had to give it up due to lyme disease and environmental toxicity illness.
    Through treatment, clean diet, supplements, exercise, and finding art again, I had much of my former self back. Yay!
    I want to make a new career with art, and have signed up for a one year art mastery program. Another yay!
    Except…it seems oil paint and mediums are setting me back big time. Down hard all this week.
    During the first video of your daughters birthday painting, you mentioned wearing masks with oils, and that toxicity was behind that. Is that in general, or do you also have a sensitivity? Did you use just paper masks, N95, or respirator?
    I’ve invested a lot in the course and supplies, and I’d like to finish what I’ve started. Also, wished I’d found you first! :)

    My family friend was Zoran Nastic, he recommended acrylic longtime ago. He finished Art History and took his PhD in painting in England .Anyway I work in acrylic considering that I have a small studio in the house .My only tip for Art is I am doing it beer feet , I don’t know if that makes any sense but I think that has something to do with grounding, it woks for me 👋 Curious what will happen with the painting considering you destroyed my favorite segment of the 🖼 😮🤦‍♀️

    @PetervanderPalm ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's always a wonder how an abstract painting is created. It's always about feeling, balance and form. Coincidence is also an important factor. Everyone has their own opinion, I personally think that the black/gray areas appear a bit too strong in this painting. A big danger is that you go too far and then completely ruin your painting. I have that very often. I When it is finished you should be able to say this is a real...... Recognizable who made it.

    the biggest problem of an artist in abstract painting is to slow himself down the motto is less is more in my opinion you went too far from 10:39 you should have stopped yourself, I don't mean that subjectively but it is a fact I often make this mistake myself, even when turning you should only turn it a quarter turn and look at it but you turned it 180 degrees straight away

    Really glad you are not playing too much music in tbe background or between clips...
    Music-as-you-paint is not for me... music is extremely distracting,,, its very emotional. Imagine you are in an upbeat mood, energetic. Looking at your art.... and someone starts playing some loud, whiny love song, or angry punk music, or slow heart break pop crap whilst you are making art... music is a form of emotional propaganda, especially if its forced on you. Anything but inspiring while concentrating..😊.
