Hi, Debbie. Thank you for your question. Now I have used acrylics before but never to paint landscapes or wet on wet like the ones I mostly do on my channel. But I do know it is indeed possible to use acrylic however you have to mix in what's called a "retarder" that keeps your acrylic paints wet for a longer enough period of time to allow you to blend right on the canvas like you see with oil mediums. This technique is called "wet on wet" because we depend on our canvas staying wet during the duration of when we paint. The idea is to paint wet layers on top of wet layers, which can be difficult to do if we use acrylic mediums which tend to dry very fast since they are water based. Golden and Liquitex are the biggest brands on the market right now which have retarders that you can purchase to mix in with your acrylics, however I don't have personal experience with them. Hope this helps and let me know how it works out for you if you decide to look into it and try it out.
Hey, pal. Thanks so much for your question. I paint in oils. But I have a special episode coming out next season where I’m going to do an acrylic version of wet on wet. So if acrylics are your forte, hopefully you’ll subscribe to the channel so you don’t miss out on it. I think acrylic artists are really going to enjoy it. Thanks again 👍
@@Kennysgreasypaint where can I buy for that brand sir? I watched your painting and all beautiful, and I want to paint like you do but my materials are my problem.
@@noelslofar2670 Thank you! I appreciate the feedback and support. There’s no reason anyone can’t paint something great. But if you’re looking for the same tools and materials I use, they’re all pretty big name brands you can find off of the internet. The brushes I use are natural bristle haired. And the Winsor and Newton paints I buy from an art store that we have here in New York called, Michaels. I’m not sure where you’re from so they may or may not have that art store based on your location.
Thanks Kenny , was just wonderful
Thank YOU, Kobra for the lovely comments 😊
The taco bell joke made me laugh way too hard 🤣 great painting!
Thanks man. And yeah, had a bad experience with lunch that day 😆
Awesome work brother! Looking forward to season 2 and can’t wait for episode 2s painting.

Looks awesome bro!
Keith! Please keep me posted about your work and keep it up yourself. Do you post your paintings on any other social media of your own?
@@Kennysgreasypaint I haven't posted anything. I have just shared photos with friends etc. I may start putting them on Facebook once I get better lol
@@keithhayes1394 It’s a privilege for me to be one of the ones you share with 👍
Can you use the same technique using acrylic paint??

Do you paint in oils or acrylics
Hey, pal. Thanks so much for your question. I paint in oils. But I have a special episode coming out next season where I’m going to do an acrylic version of wet on wet.

Is that acrylic sir?
Nah man. 100% oils. I have the brand and all colors listed in the video description 👍
@@Kennysgreasypaint your acrylic is thick, and mine was almost liquid, what brand of acrylic did you use most?
@@noelslofar2670 They’re not acrylics. They’re oils. Winsor & Newton brand.
