I haven't even done a single project yet, I just bought my paint and canvas yesterday I'm looking around TH-cam to see about beginners help and came across ur channel( Wich by the way is awesome) I've already learned a few things from you 3 videos in!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the content and how you talk us thru the steps. I'm looking forward to watching more of ur vids and starting my very 1st painting. (Did I mention I have absolutely ZERO, I MEAN ZERO artistic talent a stick figure is challenging for me to draw. But I'm looking forward to trying this and learning from these vids, thank you again for the help, look forward to painting and learning.
Hi Kevin, WoW, Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to leave these kind words, the comment, and the feedback, I really appreciate it :) :) Cool, It's a fun and enjoyable way to paint, You'll be fine :) Just take your time when doing things, Each video in the beginners tutorials are full painting videos apart from the first 3 where i explain how things work, and in each one i show how to do something or add something new. I made these beginner tutorials easy to follow for people that have never done anything like this and want to learn how to make spray paint art or a different way of making art, If you follow along with them you should easily pick things up :) But if you do have any questions feel free to comment and i'll try my best to help you :) It's also nice to hear that you love my content and that they are helping you learn :)

Hi Gareth, No problem, Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave this comment and the question i appreciate it :) I don't know the brand of the glossy paper as they were just in plain wrapping, sorry i couldn't help.
morning jon thanks for this video its very imformative .im just starting out .r u going to do a video on stencils as its taking me ages to do these and also I cant get them to be very big any help would be greatful
Hi Stu, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave this comment and fab feedback i really appreciate it :) How you finding it spray paint art are you enjoying it ? Yes i may do a video about stencils as part of the series :)
hi jon thanks u for replying .to answer ur questions im absoluley loving it at mo really enjoying doing it .how long have u been doing it because u make it look so easy .speak soon stay safe stu
hiya john love the tutorials ,i would like 2 start doing spray paint art but i dont no where 2 start,is the spray paint acrylic or is there other different spray paints,sorry am clueless when it comes 2 this,can u use car spray or metal spray paint ,i did try metal spray paint in black but it just came out like a blob and tried 2 do i light spray but i couldnt get any kind of technique or anything with it ,could u please give me some advice on what 2 buy ,i am high risk for covid and need 2 order things so any advice would be appreciated x
Hi Gillian, Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to leave this comment and feedback I really appreciate it :) Glad to hear you love the tutorials :) You can get spray paint in gloss , semi-gloss and matte finishes, also they have different lacquer bases like acrylic, synthetic , alkyd and more. You should be able to use any spray paint for spray paint art it may just take a little while to get use to the one you are using :) You will also need to give each can a good shake before using them to get the paint all mixed up in the can :) As for what spray paint to buy , i would just buy a black and white and 2 or 3 colours of a make to see if you like that paint and it works for you , as different people prefer different makes, Also if you don't enjoy painting with spray paint then you haven't spent much on it. You can find and order spray paint from online spray paint suppliers, just type in the search box spray paint suppliers and then look for ones that are in your country and that will deliver Hope this helps :)
Thanks for all the advice, I am amazed at your paintings ,I live in UK so I could probably find the same suppliers ,I am struggling to get paper ,also when u spray on canvas d you have 2 spray it 2 make it glossy or anything, or can u buy glossy one's, sorry a no am a pain and a bit dim 🤣 it's the Yorkshire in me lol,your tutorials r so useful and keep up the good work 👍 x
No Problem Gillian, You are not being a pain, I enjoy answering comments and helping people out :) I'm not sure where to get paper from as the paper supplier i was using as shut up shop and i haven't looked for anywhere else yet, as i have enough paper to last me a while. You could have a look on the internet to see if there's any paper suppliers near to you that sells paper, sorry i couldn't be helpful. Most canvas come ready prep to paint on, If i paint on one i just pull it out of the wrapper and paint straight on it hope this helps.
@@JonBarberArt thankyou mate you have been really helpful also have u done any tutorials on how 2 spray and how much pressure 2 put on the spray cap,I looked at other tutorials but it seems like they r for graffiti artists,I tried 2 do a 3d wallpaper on a spare bit of glossy wood but it just comes out in a blob so that didn't come out good, any suggestions please,I have found your page on fbook so could I message you on that also, massive thumbs-up 👍 you make it look so easy and it's amazing when it's finished mate,thanks again xxx
Anytime Gillian and thank you again for the positive feedback, Maybe my 2nd and 3rd episodes in my tutorial series may help you out with the caps, cans and pressure, Yes feel free to message me if you need anything else :)
You mention that you use Montana White paint. For a beginner which is better/easier to use, Montana White, Black, Gold..or is Rustoleum paint from the hardware store good enough?
Hi Laurie, Thank you for the comment and question it's really appreciated :) Yes i'm using Montana white for this series has it closer to hardware spray paint in pressure wise as it's a high pressure spray paint, and is a bit cheaper in price then other paint , if you are just starting to learn or want to give it a try to see if you enjoy it, then i would just buy some cheap paint, when i started i just used some old spray cans that i had already to see if i liked it or not , that way if you don't enjoy it, you haven't spent much money on it, just buy a few colours and a black and white to start. if you then like and enjoy painting with spray paint then buy some better paint like the Montana gold , All spray paint will take a little bit to get use too has every one is slightly different from another one, It's all about finding one that suit's you best , and could be a matter of trying a few different ones before you find one type that you like :) hope this helps , If you need any more help just ask :)

Here's a tip guys. Never ever use news paper if you live somewhere hot or painting in the hot sun. It sticks to the paper or canvas and makes you want to tear your hair out. Believe me
Hi Certified geek, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment, feedback and suggestions it's really appreciated :) Yes any paper will stick and rip when trying to make the texture even magazine paper will and also if it's to hot or you are in direct sunlight the paint will dry a lot faster so you may find it hard making texture with any material if you are not fast enough :)
:) Some times it can be a pain when it drys so fast if you are trying to do something that takes a bit longer to put down before the texture part , I don't really get it that hot where i live apart from the odd heatwave :)
You are verry clear in al those things! Love it!

Haha yeah I know, but it's nice that I never need a flamethrower.
:) Some times it can be a pain when it drys so fast if you are trying to do something that takes a bit longer to put down before the texture part , I don't really get it that hot where i live apart from the odd heatwave :)
