Northern Lake Cottage Painted in Acrylics
Follow along with Jane as she demonstrates her latest tutorial of a lake cottage surrounded by pine trees and flowers. Using hookers green deep, which is almost black in color, she lays out her painting on the red/orange painted canvas. She then starts adding to the canvas in her negative painting style--the sky is painted last. For more information on her favorite acrylic paint brushes and colors as well as classes for purchase, visit her website JaneSlivkaGallery.com

To loosen up is such a struggle for me. I need to not take myself so serious and just enjoy the process. Thank you for this demonstration.

I'm learning so much about loosening up and going for the effect rather than details. Thanks for this wonderful example of how to paint with courage and confidence.

Hi Jane: I wanted to ask you how you get rid of a mistake made at the hookers green stage. I tried painting over the dried green paint using the orange acrylic I had used as an underpainting to tone the canvas. I had to actually block out the unwanted patch of dark green with thick gesso, then going over the spot with the orange paint. How do you correct or eliminate an error
@freedomofacrylicswithartis5133
8 ай бұрын
I usually just let the paint completely dry, and then i paint over it. I don't try to make it orange again. You should be able to cover the green if it is totally dry.
This is an embarrassing question. How do you not end up with paint all the way up the bristles? It sounds like you are really laying down paint, so not really being gentle. It's it the quality of the Princeton brush, or ........?☺️☺️ So thankful i found your channel!

I am so glad you found my channel. I don't know the answer to your quesiton. I load a lot of paint on the tip of my brush. Maybe that's the difference. Also, I do love my brushes and using Liquitex heavy body acrylic paints.
Bravo Jane! You are an inspiration! Can you please tell me if you add coats of gesso under the cad. red base colour? Thank you 🤗

Thank you for your feedback. The photo I used was taken in Michigan.
Thanks for sharing, Jane! It's a lot to learn from you. May I suggest that the camera lady, to refrain from making so many adjustments while she is recording? The image was out of focus frequently, especially at the beginning. Then, at the end of the tutorial, she zoomed in for too long. When you were talking about comparing the two areas - with the green used for the sea only and with the same green added to the flowers. I couldn't compare, because I couldn't see the sea. I appreciate that she is adding valuable information regarding the colours used and such. And I don't wish her to be disheartened. Maybe the camera she uses needs some adjustments before the recordings...Anyway, you are a great artist, with or without those filming errors.

I was not really happy how the house looked either, so after having it sit around the studio for weeks, I revised it. We just completed a tutorial where I show what I changed in five paintings.
