At last a beginners tutorial that’s actually for beginners. I am just starting, first time painter at 54. I learned so much from this thank you! Plus I just love that it’s okay to use a drawing as a base, for those of without a natural talent but lots of enthusiasm .

I have many many turtorials that are for beginner beginners as well as intermediate artists. The reason we started the beginner painting course was to get our members to where they can paint some of the intermediate paintings. We hope the course helps you get there. In the meantime, you can go to our website and check out all our 1 hoot paintings here theartsherpa.com/ Just click on videos, then the 1 hoot link 💛

I just ran into your comment. After a year are you still pursuing art and painting and are you successful like you may have expected? I'm 66 and dabbled in art throughout my life but not painting. I'm wanting to give it a shot. What are my odds? Since you started late as well? Lol

After searching through several videos, I finally found this one, and it is exactly what I have been looking for. I am an absolute beginner with acrylics and had no idea where to start. There were enough tips in this one video that were covered well that I can start my painting today with confidence. Thank you!

I have been using one of the cheapest silicone cutting mats from the dollar store for a paint pallet. I simply trim it to the size of the underlying sponge sheet. Snap the top. Paint stays ready to go. Inadvertently dries? Just peel it off.

@user-gz3kz8cp5u, Thank you for sharing your journey with us. At 77, and as a complete beginner, you've shown immense courage in taking up painting, and I'm truly honored to be part of your artistic exploration. Your brushes are essential tools, and looking after them well can make your painting experience even more rewarding. Don't be afraid to take those first steps; remember, every artist starts somewhere. I admire your spirit, and I believe in your potential. Your creativity is a gift waiting to be unwrapped, and your age simply adds wisdom to your unique perspective. Keep nurturing that courage, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need support. Wishing you a joyful painting journey, Cinnamon
So awesome! I'm a black and gray tattooer who's trying to learn to paint cause I want to learn colors. Thank you so much for your video!
Thank you! Its been years since I did painting. I started with no knowledge at all but just grab a brush and paint away. Knowing these basics really helped me a lot! Ypu rock!
Thank you so much. Learning these basics gives me courage. At 65 I'm determined to paint.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. This is great information for everyone. I’ve been painting for awhile but have never learned the “basics” of the game. Again, thanks and keep ‘em comin’!
I found your videos and there is so much I didn’t even know! I have never felt more confident about painting until I watched this! Thank you for taking the time to thoroughly explain and teach step by step the basics of painting 😃
Love that you make it clear that tracing for a light outline is NOT cheating. I mean, even the greats sometimes used a camera obscura to project an image on their canvas to get an outline centered properly. The main one I know of was Da Vinci. 😉👍
Thank you so much! I am brand new to painting, and this video has been extremely helpful. Thank you again!
Thank you so much. You honestly have the best energy.
Thank you for posting this video. I’m just learning how to paint and am starting off with acrylics. I did not want to get bogged down into formal lessons because my ideas for canvas or board are very personal. Your videos are going to help a lot. Thanks!

I miss painting and you and your mom has made my art experience so enlightening. Thanks for the joy you’ve given. My husband Geoff has cancer and I’m his care giver and also my sister is in a facility. My painting has been on hold. Today has been fun watching you. I miss John’s love he shows you when narrating the show. Don’t ever think that what you give is of no value for people of low-fixed incomes, it’s priceless!

Wonderful! I've been painting for a long time and thank you very much for your hints.! You are very thorough and it's much appreciated.
This is the BEST tutorial I've watched. Just started painting folkart scenes and didn't have the first clue. Bought everything from Gesso, acrylic 16×20 paper, different size canvas set, 30 different acrylic paint colors, 2 sets of brushes, an easel, a paint and pallete set. Lol...now I just have to learn what I'm doing. Fingers crossed.

Well this course will most definitely get you started in the right direction 💖
Thanks for a great tutorial for real beginners! I've been doing watercolors for a couple years and decided to try acrylics. You covered everything I didn't know I didn't know about acrylics, from squeezing the paint out of the tube and getting it on the brush to putting it on the paper, and cleaning up afterwards--all the media-specific topics you absolutely need to know but everyone else assumes you already do. And you even covered painting leaves! This is the very first acrylic tutorial I watched and I'm so glad I found it. Thanks again.
This is literally the best tutorial out there!
