organized & ready to paint in this satisfying fall art vlog 🍂

Seasonal changes get me in the mood to improve my space and switch up habits or my schedule. I'm trying to be more active while I work and the new taboret (workbench) has been helpful with that. Plus organizing art supplies into the new drawers was a blast. and it's got me itching to pull out other mediums in the weeks to come.
Otherwise I've been digging into my current painting, working on the block in phase and initial layers. I get a lot of work done in short focused bursts, making time for other responsibilities and of course some staring out the window time.
It can be hard to get all the chores, fun things and art done when a lot is happening but having your space set up in a functional way and with something on the easle at all times to jump into is a game changer for productive studio work.
Enjoy the art vlog! let me know what you think of it or what you want to start doing in your own art practice to improve your process!

    Wow, that painting is coming along quite nicely! Those three people look so life like, you half expect them to start walking down that side walk. Question for you: that white box with the red top in which you keep your palette fresh. I have one too and have used it for oils. How well does it keep your acrylics from going dry? Do you spray some water on the paint before you close the lid? Thank you for sharing!

  • @mariasisul

    @mariasisul

    7 ай бұрын

    Thank you! The figures are two of my sisters and one of my brothers so I'm trying to do them justice 😁 My sta-wet palette is great, underneath the paint is a sponge that keeps the palette paper moist. This plus a good quality paint with the right consistency can be okay in the box for a week. I tend to refresh the paint more often than that though as I run out. Honestly the paint can stay workable for even longer but to avoid mold or smell it's better to keep it too a week I'd say. But I'm not spraying any water on. A Utrecht heavy body acrylic works well, liquitex is too runny to leave it in there for long and golden's acrylic brand gets too stiff and pastey.

    There are a lot of variables, but a little bit of experimenting and you'll figure out what works best for you! Oh and I recommend the Masterson sta-wet sponge and palette paper from the same brand. Just wet paper towel is a cheaper alternative but I haven't tested that yet. Also a slow drying thinner to keep on hand could be good. I don't find it necessary usually but it depends on your paint. I think that's all the advice I got :)@@TionneSolusar007
