I use a plastic palette that has an air tight lid and it will keep open acrylics wet for over a month. Nice painting by the way!

AWESOME!!!! Good to know this. :)

Golden Open has been sold at major retailers, Michaels, Joann, Blick, etc. for the past 15 plus years. Sam Golden invented acrylic paint.

really, I'd heard of golden paint for years but open only in the last two or three years, don't know why, I tried it last week and I'm sold great stuff

Also, the beautiful thing about acrylics, you can paint your first layer in acrylic and when it is dry you can come back over it in a thin layer of oils to get the glow of oil without as long of a dry time.

Omgosh, I'm so excited about this!!! I was trying to use up my acrylics before I went and bought oils and was soooo happy that you have discovered an acrylic that doesn't dry so fast. I'm really not a fan of using paint thinner because of my allergies so I was kind of dreading switching to oils but was going to do it to be able to paint along with you. Please do a video using the acrylics and give us the info how to obtain them. I can't tell you how happy this makes me...thanks and God bless you. You are my favorite artist on You Tube!

Yes , I would like to learn more . Please do a show on it.

One thing I like about acrylics is that as long as it's wet on the canvas you can erase small mistakes by using a damp clean brush.

Love the painting you're in the middle of. Really so excited about this!

I'm honestly shocked at how well it blended. I'd love a try with it.

Wow! I cannot wait to see you demonstrate this!!!

Really looking forward to a detailed tutorial on the use of Golden Open Acrylic paints for use instead of Oil paint . When I saw your intro video I purchased a landscape set of golden open and have been experimenting all week with it, with very good results. I am looking forward to see what medium you suggest to replace the Gamlin solvent free gel you use. Justin the could be a big differentiator between you and the other Bob Ross style artists/trainers. Most budding new artists are put of at a very early stage when using toxic oil pants, the use of Open Golden is a very very clean alternative. I could imagine your viewing audience / subscriptions would go through the roof with you being the only instructor using the Open Golden paints for landscapes on KZread no oils necessary. This could be the start of something bigger for your KZread Channel and I am looking forward to start the new wet on wet acrylic journey with you. Great work Justin.

Yes I would like you to explore this some more, Peace Justin.

That is awesome!!!! I did not know about this till now... I would definately love to see a painting tutorial with this paint.👍🌞 Thank you for sharing this Justin🌞

Peace,this is an awesome painting wow it's really beautiful landscape the toning was perfectly applied you are pro👏👏👏

Wow love that painting 😯.. yea you go Justin 👍👏

Beautiful painting too!!

I bought some of this open acrylic......like to use it for plein aire painting......definitely show us your uses in tutorials.....a great product!

You can add a drop of the Golden Open Acrylic medium to your existing heavy bodied acrylics to make them open acrylics as well.

Just awesome!!!

I love that painting❤️

Golden open acrylics are really interesting stuff that all painters should try out. Also, I don't know if you ever tried them but Water Mixable Oil Paints are really awesome. They're exactly like regular oil paints except they can be thinned and cleaned up with just water instead of paint thinners.

Thanks for doing this video. I had heard about open acrylics, but never checked them out. I paint with heavy body acrylics, but just ordered a landscape set of the open ones and am anxious to try them out!

I don’t know why my husbands name was one that comment. My name is Donle.

Have painted with oils for years but have become allergic to them now... headaches, etc. Will try with the acrylics now. Love it thank you.

Ya golden open acrylics are a very good paint to use especially if you want your acrylics to stay wet longer. I’ve also started painting by doing a undercoat with acrylic and then laying oil on top to get those great blends

Glad to know this !

I’m excited to try them

Excited!!!

Yes i would, i have been thinking of useing acrylics. So that is a great idear, i hope you put that video together soon.

Yay! More please!

Oh I can't wait.

thanks for posting. i've used and i love them. please post a more detailed version on how you use them. thanks

Is gamblin paint a real stiff paint? Does it cost more or less than Bob Ross paint? I've been using Master's touch and winsor and Newton. They are not quite stiff enough imo.

Awesome video! And, yes, PLEASE do an instructional video using these acrylics!! I'm stoked!

I use a majello air tight pallet and have kept OPEN acrylics completely wet for over 6 Months. I don’t put it in the fridge. Once every few months I spray a layer of water over them.

YES PLEASE!

I loved it. Have been experimenting with DYI suggestions from other artists, but i have not succeeded on my blending technique. I do like the Bob Ross technique of wet on wet. However, I do not want the fumes from chemicals. Looking forward to your ideas! Thank you!

Love your enthusiasm for painting and your ease. Just found you yesterday when I was trying to find how to do pine trees. Awesome teaching, by the way, thank you!! My trees turned out pretty good. Now I’m trying to find how to paint frozen water. It’s also for the same painting. Congrats on your new find with long-lasting wet acrylic. I’d be interested in learning this wet-on-wet acrylic. The blending you’re talking about, I think is called scribing. 😁

Looks good. I’d like to give this a try Hope your in good spirits take good care and stay lucky 🍀

Hi! Very nice video and demonstration. I keep bouncing back and fourth between OPEN / Fluid / Heavy Body. Between OPEN and Heavy Body, I keep thinking that I prefer wet on wet techniques more then wet on dry... I've only had the experience with Liquitex Basics and I didn't like that feel of wet paint coming in contact with the dry canvas, it seems that i'm disturbing a finish painting or something, always creating a harsh line. Because of that, my current plan is to focus my main colors in OPEN, (maybe buy only a small tube of HB White and Yellow for the max opacity when needed) and some strategic Fluid colors to do underpainting and finishing detail. I hope that makes sense.

I enjoy your videos please keep them coming. I didn’t start painting until i was about 50. I watched Bob Ross for years and became Cerified to teach. I love oils but lately they have been giving me dry eyes and and bothering my asthma. I am very interested in these acrylics. I am so happy you are overcoming depression..keep up the fight. I know it’s not easy. A few years ago I suffered from caregiver breakdown and it’s been quite a journey.

So awesome...I hadn't heard of it and would love to try it out...is it a medium you add to paint or buying all new paints. Have you tried the oils you can thin and clean up with water? I'm interested in seeing you review those too if you haven't already... God bless you!!

I would love to see more of these videos

I love acrylics specifically the Golden Fluid (they dry super quick tho) they move like cream and gorgeous pigment I'm sure the opens are great to. That's awesome acrylics dries way to quick sometimes. I wonder if u add acrylic retarder it may be more like oil dry. Thanks for sharing!

Oh the most important question is were do you go to for people to see my painting 🎨 I really appreciate you sharing this information.have a very colorful day and happy painting ❤❤

Which green are you using? Sap?

This is AWESOME!!!! I'm interested about this NEW acrylics. Yes, I begin to worry and petrified when I heard one Artist said that she developed lung problem using the Turpenoid Odorless Thinner and her doctor said it looked like she had been smoking. And some develop bronchitis. And others were saying they start getting a headache and had to stop oil painting. Others said to wear a mask while oil painting...tadadada...you get my drift. Anyhoo, I'm looking on the water-soluble oil paints also. But I'm open to acrylics...

I would be interested in finding out more. Thank you

Thanks for sharing, helps when those in the know can let us know products that work.

🙏Thank you very much I’ll try it ❤️🖼🎨

Justin...I am working with student grade acrylics. Would love to see what you come up with. I have not heard of open acrylics but Golden is a good brand.

Moc pěkné 👍

Justin, I was just wondering when you were going to start doing open acrylics tutorials. I like acrylics and they do dry fast. I've tried oil but have problems with oil. I always go back to acrylics. There are not too many tutorials for open acrylics and got excited when you posted this.

I stumbled across this video and I am blown away..maybe I get blown away easily too (and i am a lefty as well!) But oils tend to frustrate me at times but nowhere near as much as acrylics bc of how they dry so fast...i gotta try this..eventually! 😊

I would love to know what it is, I have been doing acrylics for years and still find it dry's to quick and as you say, just started oils but it smells for hours, please share with us... :)

You can also use water-mixable oils. Cobra and Holbein are good brands.

Justin I have worked with Golden Open some in the past to see how it would do and I have been impressed. However I do prefer oil paint. Recently after watching how you apply the Gamblin Solvent Free Medium on an oil painting I got to thinking about the Open paints. So I took an 8x10 canvas and covered it with Golden Open Medium. Then I did a quick wet into wet painting and it worked. Mind you I was in and out of that painting in about 30 minutes. I am not sure it would work on a large canvas but on the small canvas it worked very well. I would love to see some videos using the Golden Opens. You might also look at Chroma Atelier Interactive Acrylics as they are even more "open" than Golden Open Paints.

There are also paints called INTERACTIVE, WORKS THE SAME WAY! Thanks! Also, I've used water based oils & those work great...just water & soap clean up.

Thank you ❤🍒🍓

Yes, that would be helpful!

Would love to see you use this in a demo.

I was just wondering this!

Yes! Please make a video using the Golden Open.

I am in admiration of all you artists. I can't paint but have to settle, lovingly mind you, with "The Joy of Painting " with Bob Ross on TV every afternoon. If you are in Australia, it's on at 1730 (5.30pm) on Viceland Free to Air.

Would you recommend putting on the canvas a liquid white or magic white for acrylics when using this paint? There are formulas for liquid/magic white which is mostly a mixture of Golden Open Thinner and Golden Retarder mixed with titanium white. I read that you should not use water at all when using the Golden Open paints. I ordered a couple of these paints and am looking forward to trying them. Your comments and thoughts are greatly appreciated. BTW, I love your painting❤️

Yes Justin please tell me what to use so my acrylic don’t dry so fast. Joyce

Do you still use these?

Nice! Make a video with the details. Super painting BTW!

Yes, please! I found this lady through another KZreadr. She has come up with a mixture that makes acrylics act like oils. I’ve tried it and it’s great. It may not stay as open as these but it does give about 30 of open time :). I have too much invested in regular acrylics to buy Open acrylics. I only learned about open acrylics after I bought a bunch of regular acrylic. I’ll send you a private message with the link.

I personally use liquid white on the canvas before using acrylics, it keeps the paint wet and allows blending. It was Bob Ross's go to.

Thank you.

I would like to see how to use this paint.

Sounds interesting I do you acrylic because of the cost factor. But I’m still giving oil a try because I just want to I guess. 🤓

You can achieve comparable results with regular acrylics and flow medium or slow dri medium. However for thosr oil painters who don't like the toxic clean ups...check out water mixable oils, they clean up with water and are less toxic than acrylics plastics.

Bro what’s the name of the brand of that acrylic? Your keeping it secret ? Your not known for that , I am dying to know about it please share the details 😊

Justin, Acrylic Wet on Wet. Help please. I’m tired of my paint drying on my pallet then I usually put to much water in it. I learnt with Bob Ross

Hell yes. I want to see what your using bro. I paint with acrylics 99% of the time and I don't have much hair left to pull out Justin..lol lol. I have a bucket of water next to me! I have a spray bottle in one hand and a brush in the other. I hate the fact that I have to paint so fast. I like to kick back and see what the painting is revealing to me. I dont do a scetch first and I probably should. I know !! Oils are beautiful also but take forever to kick off . I've even added Japan dryer, white spirits, and penetrol together to make a mixture that leaves no brush strokes and dries much much faster that traditional practices. But!!! It will eventually crack due to the fact lean rule. But I can paint a picture and finish it before I have to collect social security. Lol Please let me know justin what your using in the acrylics to extend dry times. I have tried using floetrol in the acrylics but that is a brush stroke removal additive for latex house paints. Interior paints like for furniture or kitchen cabinets and such. Same as penetrol for your oil paints. Maybe I didn't have the mox right but it didn't seem to extend it that much longer before it wasn't blendable any longer. I dont know!! Just trying to find something that let's me completely do a painting in 3 to 4 days rather than months.. I'm like you bro! I do this to give me a little gratification and keep me smiling on those tough days. . So please let me know. . That is if you want to release your secrets.. I understand if you dont also buddy. . No problem. I'll just keep experimenting till I find the holy grail. . Lol lol. Thank you so much for all you do share Justin. . ✌😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Hi Justin. I’m very excited about what you have found! I still love my oils though. I might be moving into an apartment or condo in the future and I’m concerned with being in a smaller place with the odours of the oil paints. I’m using Murphy’s soap and safflower oil to clean my brushes but there is still the odour of the oil paints. Maybe the gamblin oils are better. I haven’t used them yet. Still using older tubes of paints. As I use them up I’ll be buying gamblin. Hopefully they odour is lots less. But if not I would certainly be trying the acrylics way with you. So definitely would love to see your tutorials on this technique and see what you think of this way of painting.

I’m not sure about odors from your oil paint I have many different brands and none of them have a smell, as for brush cleaners, there is a product called Chelsea’s lavender brush cleaner that you can use while painting that works amazing, you can also thin your paint with it and there no harm no fumes that are bad completely safe to use.

What is OPEN Acrylic Medium? - (Matte) OPEN Mediums are used to extend and to modify the viscosity and transparency of OPEN Acrylics while maintaining their maximum working time. OPEN Mediums may be blended with GOLDEN Acrylics, Medium and Gels, with the open time of the resulting mixtures being proportionately increased.

When I use acrylic paint I wash my meat trays with hot soapy water rinse it and dry it and use that for a pallet.

But I feel open acrylic are very transparent....and need lots of paint to get that effect

Where can I get that paint

Im only painting wet on wet with regular acrylics. Works fine for me, just gotta be fast

Just making you aware thoug if you do start painting with acrylic even golden open you are going to have to start washing your brush with water and not only at the end of the painting. If not you will see your brush wont survive. Just a tips. Lol

Chuck Black, on his video channel very briefly talked about these and moved away from them, saying they are too transparent. Maybe they are better for followup / touchup like you did.

Can you trurn that music off how can we concentrate

Vous êtes forte ils y vont pas à ce point la

What is the product. Bob Ross does wet on wet. He uses a product, which is oil based. It make the canvas slick. Other artist use a medium. He did not tell us what the product is.

Uh, ya didn't tell us what Brand of Paint it was - I'm sure it Golden Open..

Logite chez vous

Never told us HOW ??

Now you're talkin yeah put togethe.r a Ikit for beginners..I've never painted with oil because I don't know how I like acrylics I'm scared of oil
