Anne Kerr Art Studio

Welcome to Anne Kerr Art Studio! Anne here, my channel is all about helping beginners and more advanced artists to improve their art.

On this channel I cover watercolour painting for beginners, pastel painting for beginners and drawing both in graphite and ink for beginners. Oils, acrylics and mixed media will also feature in my videos.

I will make recommendations for the best watercolours, pastels and other art materials, as cheaper ones will hinder your progress.

If you are already an experienced artist, you will enjoy the product reviews and book reviews I will be doing on my channel

Therefore, Lots of hints, tips and techniques will be coming your way!

If this all sounds like something you will enjoy, then hit the SUBSCRIBE button and I'll see you in the comments!

    Tubes vs pans: your calculation is not quite right. You don't take into account that most freshly squeezed tube paint into pans will shrink considerably when drying.

    I bet the rubber/silicon top “brushes” would make an amazing tiny spatula and would get all the paint off the inside of the tube and spout. :)

    Thank you so much for showing how to get more paint out of those little tubes. Before leaving on a trip I emptied the last of several tubes into my paint box. I didn’t throw the “empty” tubes away because I knew there was more in there and there just had to be a way to get it out. Guess what I’m doing as soon as I get home!

    Dear Anne, perhaps you also know the way to rescue an almost full tube of paint that has dried at the top due to the broken cap, which makes the rest of the paint impossible to squeeze out. Expensive and beautiful paint so would be grateful for any advice.

    However, the pans are drier and more compact and concentrated than the equivalent amount from a tube. Its dried and compressed to contain far more pigment than a squeeze from a tube. A bit like dried milk and reconstituted milk. Comparing the ml's is not equivalent.

    This is my method: in a small dish, I open and cut as much as possible the tube and cover with clean water. I let it soak for a while. Using scissors and wooden stick I wash the last bit of the pigment in the water. The only problem is that I have to wait few days for the water to evaporate but it never failed so far!

    @@annekerrartstudio8534 Hello Anne, I love art in all aspects of it. I hope that I have a lot more paint to paint with on my canvas. LOL! The oil paint does cost, and that what stopped me from painting. Now, I do more digital arts because it is cheaper, but I miss the hands-on of things. I feel freer when I take the brush and paint. I am so glad that you are teaching it and thank you for your reply.
