Chapter 7 Accelerate Your Progress Through Clear Intention: Vision and Goal Setting
I just saw your video 'worst mistake acrylic painters make' , is this mean that applying gesso in the canvas is not enough ? We need to tone the ground with airbrush medium also ?
I love how relaxing this is 😌
So relaxing!
🙏🌿
Thank you. Great information & tips. Appreciate your video a lot. :-)
💙💙💙
also may i ask if im using the permanent varnish,,, does that mean that that will act as both the isolation coat and the varnish ? thankyou
great video! Is there a waterbased varnish that is removeable?
I have never met a gallerist who understands painting, who could at least analyze a work of art. They are always usually merchants, who sometimes employ a person who has a degree in art history and knows everything about ancient Greece and Mesopotamia, but absolutely nothing about the art of the XXI century. You are a very nice lady, you look like another lady who acts in adult movies.
Stil you are beautiful ! 👄💙💋❤ From Sprta Greece
thank you very much for putting this together. It really helped my understand what I would need.
Hi Michelle I share e same sentiments having gone away from my passion and recently started my painting which feels like e first time ....what inspired me now and not before...was my mom who passed away a year ago on 27 July 2023.....I was her main caregiver....a painted a portrait of mom as a special tribute and remembrance .... I just happened to browse thru UA-cam and found you here...thanks for e detailed explanation and encouraging words ❤
Thank you extremely helpful
You're welcome!
Hi, I didnthe mistake of brushing the varnish and it is giving white stains. Do you know how i can remove it? Please help :)
I’ve never had that happen. So I’m sorry I don’t have any tips. You might want to contact the technical support of the company whose varnish you purchased.
I could be wrong but I think the lady meant how long does it take the matte medium to dry when using it in your paint. Not the pile.
Why pass the risk to the artist? You choose the artist and you believe that you can sell the artist otherwise dont choose that artist correct?
Thanks for the words of encouragement Michele! 💕
Thank you for watching and commenting! I’m glad the words encouraged you.
Cadnium red has yellow in it you have to use cool red
I’m curious what you mean by cadmium red having yellow in it? Cadmium red is a single pigment color. There are no other pigments in it. In the Monsell color system, it is in the R (red) column, not RO (red orange) nor RP (red purple.) meaning it has neither a warm nor a cool bias.
Thanks for this Michele!!!
Hey friend! Nice to hear from you! You are so welcome! Let me know if there are any other videos I can make to help you or your students with any topics or concerns.
Excellent video! Thank you. Do I understand that we need to make sure to let it dry between glazing layers?
Yes, correct. If you don’t let the glaze layer dry completely sometimes when you brush over, you can lift the layer of paint and medium below and create a bumpy texture.
Thank you so much!
I was a teenager when I gave up art. Now in my 60's I am playing around with art that is creative without being representative. I can draw a person or an animal or even a tree. But I can draw doodles. That is what I am doing now and it makes me happy. Thank you for the positive affirmations.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching! it makes my heart happy to hear you are playing around with being creative again!
This is a similar message to what I try and tell people anywhere, anyway I can. I had an art teacher in elementary school that gave me Fs when I was in 5th grade. It was a mandatory art class that I participated in, but he didn't like the work I turned in. Then, I went to an arts middle school and had to audition to get in to various disciplines. I wanted to audition for more than the 2 I would have pick and chose art as an option. The audition was to draw a still life without looking at it. The teacher came by while I was erasing and told me that if I wasn't looking then I couldn't be erasing. I'd never done any drawing like that before and was very uncomfortable with it (I'd probably still be uncomfortable now, with the not looking and the still life lol). I didn't get into art after that audition. And I thought...well, I must not be an artist, I guess all I can really do is craft. I didn't pick up a pencil or paintbrush or any other medium to create my own visual art until I was in my 30s and it has become such a source of joy and provides so much therapeutic relief that I urge anyone to create. The point doesn't have to be production. The point can be the journey. The point can be the healing!
Thank you for sharing this powerful story! I discovered when I read Julia Cameron’s “the artist way” many years ago that so many of us have these stories in our past in which we felt wounded by comments of others around us such that we turned away from our creative practice. I am so heartened to hear of your triumph and re-engagement with your creative self.😍💗👏
🎉❤🙏
💜💜💜
❤
Thank-you for this upbeat message ❣️
You are so welcome! And thank you so much for watching and leaving your comment here. Means a lot to me.🌿🙏
Thanks for the reminder Michele! 👩🏻🎨
You are so welcome!
Thank you! This meditation came at the perfect time. Peace.
I am so, so pleased to hear this. Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know. Feel free to let me know if there are any other subjects or topics for meditation or any other types of meditation that would be useful to you. It is such a joy for me to make them.
Translation: Galleries want to make as much as artists for doing nothing more than hosting a space to sell. Thank you, I'll just keep selling online and at live events and keep all the profit.
I am so glad to hear that is working for you!
Thank you for showing this in real time, it's so much more helpful than shorted videos 😊
Hey! That’s so interesting to hear. I know it seems like people are turning towards shorter and shorter content. I’m glad this long form real time video was helpful to you!
Thank you Michelle for being mindful, helpful and for making positive contributions to the world. 💝☯🕉
Thank you so much for your kind words. And I always appreciate your comments. And your patience when I am not able to respond right away. You have been an important part of this channel and I always appreciate your support!
@@MicheleTheberge, the world would be a much kinder, gentler, more productive and happier place with more people like you. 💖
@@bonzejustice4029 Thank you for your kind words it really means a lot to me!
@@MicheleTheberge, I mean every word and it makes me happy to know you do feel appreciated. 😁
Thank you!
You're welcome, Heidi! I’m so happy to have you here as part of this UA-cam channel community. 🙏💗😊
This was helpful! Thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much I have just started watching your channel and have learned so much already thank you for all your hard work
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for commenting and watching, Bonnie!🙏🌿💚
You can add some flow aid to the water and you will get something in between soft body and acrylic ink.
Great point! Thank you for adding this suggestion to the conversation!
Hi Michele! James from CCA
Hey there! I hope you are well, James! Apologies for the delayed response. It’s been a busy month and I got a bit behind on reading comments.
P r o m o s m 🌟
Great information I usually shake it like a polariud picture.
Roll the bottle back and forth across the table or your hands. Learned this with meds.
Or put a small steel ball (from an empty paint marker or such) in the bottle and swirl it around .
Oops.😂Thanks so much.🙏✨🫶
Such good tips! A few years ago, when I was using acrylic inks, I learnt the hard way (too many bubbles) that rapid violent shaking was Not the way to go 😅🥲 It's a great video!! A good reminder and solution :) ❤️ Beautiful hairstyle, by the way!
Thank you so much! I wouldn’t have known this if I hadn’t been taught it and I learned it made all the difference. I appreciate your comment on the hairstyle. 🥰🙏💕
This is a great tip! Thanks 😁
Can use pouring medium for as glue for collage
Yes, definitely! all the acrylic mediums, and even acrylic paint work like a glue because they all share the same acrylic polymer emulsion binder, which acts as an excellent adhesive!
@@MicheleTheberge 🙏❤️
Is Master’s touch paint good for acrylics
I am sorry Betty. I’m not familiar with that brand, but I do have a video on how to test acrylic mediums to help better determine their quality. In my opinion, I’m looking for a paint that lasts well in the container, that stays in suspension meaning it doesn’t separate the pigment from the binder one that is flexible and heavily pigmented.
Love this book. I, too, read it in the 90's and followed every step to the end. It helped me "become" the artist that I was. The Morning Pages tied in with a Journal I was already keeping, and still keep to this day. What a wonderful gift from Julia Cameron! For my artist dates, I like to take myself out to breakfast or lunch and then go on a hike or to the botanical garden. Nature plays a key role in my work so being in gardens, among plants, among wildlife, is vital.
Oh how happy it makes me to your personal experience with this book and your artist dates! Thank you for sharing! This reminds me I am due to schedule an artist date!!
Thank you! I needed to hear your words about "personal taste". I'm looking forward to trying the exercise once I've finished up some pieces. Thank you so much!
I truly hope it helps you. Happy art making to you!
Fascinating. Thanks for sharing. I am looking forward to experimenting with this.
You are so welcome. I hope the information is helpful to you.
I just found your site and I want to say thank you seeing the last previous. Videos has taught me quite a bit. Thank you for sharing. Oh and you’re in the Bay Area like me that’s awesome.
Great to hear! You are welcome!
Thank you for this!
My pleasure!
