- This video demonstrates how to blend a smooth color gradient using acrylic paints on canvas. First, a layer of titanium white acrylic paint is laid down with a wet blender brush. Next, bright aqua green and green yellow are applied to equal halves of the canvas. The last step is blending and smoothing the acrylic paints with dry wash brushes until they create a color gradient.

It's lovely. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Your art is so amazing Greg. I have one question though. Did you prep your canvas with gesso before painting it white?
Thank you and no I didn’t gesso it’s just raw canvas
Love your video's Greg. I have a question concerning your methods of "toning"/adding a gradient to your canvas. In the first video I watched, you prepped a large canvas and the process was very different, with regards to the white you mopped on the small canvas examples. Also, in the small canvas examples, is your color thinned in the come water and the extender? Can you explain the advantage to adding the white to the entire small canvas examples. Thanks!
That's great thanks & the benefit of adding a layer of white first is that you are then blending wet paint into wet paint (instead of into just a raw, dry canvas). This will make things much easier on you, but the colors will mute a bit. The paint should be thinned slightly with the water/extender to a creamy consistency that flows well, but try not to water it down too much.
@@GregLowmanArt would you advise adding a layer of white paint to a larger canvas? i have seen your video regarding large canvas', however i can see by these last couple videos with smaller canvas' that adding that first layer of white paint makes it butter smooth!
Love your work man, thanks heaps x
did you dip the paint in water to make it runny?
yes adding some water makes blending much easier
Nice .but I wish u would say or show the colors u have on your pallet
