Can I get those paints u yeeted 😂
You’re supposed to mix a little water with the paint to thin out the acrylic. That’s why it feels like jello. Good luck!
I am *so* relieved hearing another adult using "icky"!
Sometimes, "icky" is the most perfect & Expressive word I know.
Thank you for your honesty & openness.

I dont have any idea why you needed to include every piece of information for time at the end of your statement.
@@temporaltribe old people
Have to agree. Sometimes it is the best word.🤣

“And I made a complete mess” the mess:
Bro I was literally just about to say that lol
?
For someone with even higher standards in his own art, yes
Point is is that the colors came out insanely garish. If your standards are terribly oversaturated Tumblr art, might think that looks good, but if you're trying to go for realism, it's terrible. Overly saturated colors just don't look good as skin tone.

I love the acrylic Igor! You did a fantastic job! I believe it's all about preference, and I do prefer my acrylics. I also prefer black licorice. Don't hate me. Lol
I love acrylics, but they dry super fast unless you use a ton of paint and/or mediums so they don't really blend on the canvas or layer colors the way that some other paints do. I really enjoy it though, because they can create some super fun textures, and it means the colors (mostly) stay distinct when they're layered, so you can get some really vibrant paintings. People are the tricky to paint though, because those really vibrant colors can look sort of awkward when you're trying to convey the more subtle light and shadow on a person's face.
My absolute favorite thing about acrylics is how much they change with the use of mediums, and what specific type of acrylics you're working with though! The really runny acrylics that come in bottles feel super different to work with than the thicker tube kind you're using in the painting. Maybe you would prefer the texture of that? Maybe not though, because they behave the same color-wise, and you still get a thicker layer of paint build up compared to other paints (though it's less extreme).
Me yelling at my acrylic paint covered hands and slathered canvas: “You hear that?? YOU’RE *ICKY* “
😂
It's still looks cool
Ngl, I don't know how to paint with acrylic paint, but you did well
But at least I won
Try to put cornstarch in them 😊
Help I can't stop hearing his quotes when I mess up aaaaaa! Oh well I don't actually know why I'm complaining
I’m a noob but I like acrylic Igor more!
This looks awesome
Now this is one of the only times to say,
'✨️its not a mistake, it's a masterpiece✨️'
Acrylic is All I've had and I struggle cuz its so weighted and doesn't blend easily, so ig its not just me. But its the closest thing to oil I have. and I'm still angry cuz your painting is better than anything I've made. but I'll have to try a new medium
Good on you for giving them a try anyways
I feel special now
Maybe you can try blending it with water? Although I'm not sure not an artist.
"Actually, it's pronounced, Eye-gor." 💅
They’re made for bold, heavy lines. Don’t try to blend too much, just try gradients, by mixing colors on a pallet. Keep trying!
@@redvelvet9215 wait…
What
I’ve never been to set school I guess that shows
you can blend with acrylics- I am a acrylic painter
@@tangochan6263 same but im looking to switch to oil paints because i do bob ross type stuff and acrylics dry so fast
@@lilmuffin4834you can use retardants or if you don’t want all the chemicals that come with oils- water based oils are a nice in between.
There’s also a medium that makes your oil paints water soluble- I LOVE IT SO MUCH!
I have lung issues so I can’t use all the other mixers and whatnot.
This stuff mixes out on your palette, mix your paint with it and your brushes come clean with water!
Good Luck!!

Y'all are watering down the meaning of "masterpiece".
@@cutienerdgirl what does it mean then?
Yeah I wonder what his motivation was.
I’m an acrylic artist and I feel the same way about watercolor. I’m honestly impressed to no end by artists who are good with watercolor and acrylic, they’re just so different
Me too
They realize they are different and don't try to force them to be eachother. 😊
I absolutely love how solid and quick drying acrylics are. It means that if I mess up, I can just wait a couple minutes and paint over it
That's the worst part for me. I'm a good artist and generally best in mediums such as graphite pencils and charcoal (yes the realism ones). I'm also quite good at water colour as they r subtle and you can easily control them how u want to. I tried acrylics the other day and it was like hell for me , the paint doesn't move much at all , its too thick and chunky to spread and the worst part is that I couldn't layer it at all . I'm used to watercolor layering which is completely different from this .
@@theemo874 I've only ever used acrylics and I've personally found watercolors to be muddy and hard to work with
I had so much trouble with that😂, the first paint I ever excelled in was oil painting and then water colour painting with the former having the complete opposite property (slow drying). Paint was never really a forte since I specialise in black and white detailed illustrations. Sometimes colourful illustrations as well but even then I’m a sucker for shading and shadows which is so much more difficult in Acrylic, I found that Acrylic was best in terms of pop art , solid Colours paintings and even calligraphy (at least for me 😅)
@@theemo874 sounds like you have a hard time mixing and creating colors with your eyes alone
@@theemo874 you can be a great artist but you definitely won't be good with a new medium right of the start
I personally dabble in allmost every medium from drawing to sculpting with allmost anything I could think of
Currently digital art is my favorite and working with so much mediums in my life made it real easy to get used to
Worst transition was from realistic drawings to acrylics / gouache
But once I got the hang of it and became patient with it and learned how to actually paint with them it was a blast
And from that to learn watercolors was even easier by then
Ive been painting with acrylics for almost three years now and that painting is better than everything I’ve ever painted
well he does have decades of painting experience
@@ManuelMal what i meant was that he was saying he doesn’t use acrylics at all while I have been trying to for like 3 years lol
Lol, what is that user profile? Very... cursed.
Sis that profile pic is sending me 😂
Same and i've been learning so much stuff and he just does this and calls it a mess
😂 as someone who uses acrylics as my main medium I agree they can be “heavy”. But if you really want to try to get into them I have some tips! Before using the stuff in the tubes which is often super thick and “jello like”, use some craft acrylic paints. Like the bottles in Walmart, brands like Apple barrel or folkart, they are much thinner and are easier to layer! They take some getting used to, but I love acrylics! But I am horrible with watercolors! 😂 but seriously, try it one more time with the thinner stuff! I personally don’t like to use the thick paint unless I’m trying to get a richer tone!
When i paint with acrylics i like to 'tap' the paint onto the canvas rather than paint it with strokes, jusy finished a painting today of a hummingbird using this method! It gives my paintings a fuzzy, dreamy look that i can only really get with acrylics because of their texture and how they mix easy but dry fast. I can *not* imagine painting with acrylics the same way i do with watercolor, they are such hugely different mediums!
Same love acrylics! Water color bleeds easy and is hard to control while getting that watery faded effect!
@@soupbird8081 now I understand why my trees looked so good in acrylic, bc I also "tapped" to get leaves.🌳
We’re the opposite 😂 I cant use acrylics very well, but I’m super confident in watercolour, thanks for the tips tho! I’m slowly trying out different types of paint and art styles so this might come in handy ❤️
And use lots of floating medium! 😸
“Here’s everything I know about acrylics. Nothing” 💀💀💀
Bro that was my reaction too 💀💀
He just like me fr
I'm an Acrylic painter, and you calling them icky, and saying you hate them only makes me laugh because some days I feel the same way. For me, acrylics are best when working on landscapes life forests, mountains, oceans etc. Whenever I try any other form of art with acrylic, I want to throw myself against a wall. 🤣🤣
You never fail to make me smile, keep up the good, honest laughs!! You make my day ❤
PS: that acrylic painting youve just done looks better than any of my paintings, ive no odea what you are oj about!!! ❤

@@terryzhou2851 This is very true
❤ Right! That part!
Try starting with watered down acrilics, use em like water colors?
I don’t think they would mix
I paint with acrylics using water to create that “water paint” affect. The deal is that acrylic dries super fast, but add water and it immediately is back to life. Add too much water and you just took off the whole paint off the canvas because acrylic will come off with just water. I love putting down a layer of acrylic paint and then use water to create a flow of lighter shades. Then can even add in another color. The best part is how fast it dries. I’m practicing now using ACTUAL water paints and it’s so different 💀.
It would mix - their water based - 😃
Yeah I definitely think adding water would help.
@@braydenmorris1537 i’m pretty sure they are actually plastic based! which sucks but you know.
i dont know how im early ive literally just been binging your shorts
"And I made a complete mess"
*The "mess" being one of the best paintings I've ever seen and way better than I could ever do
I think your acrylic style is incredible! 🤘
“Dragging jello around” is so accurate to how I feel about them. Acrylic leaves so many ugly chunks and streaks and it shines like glass and uuuUUUGHGGhhh
Bro did you even add water💀
@@ilovedoraemon519 I did. And then it felt like painting with mud. But that’s how I feel about paint in general tbh😣
@@schleepy6362 I used it it doesn't feel like that 😕
@@schleepy6362 you should probably check what type of acrylic paint it is. cause you might be using heavy body instead soft body. heavy body is meant for like super texture stuff that you paint with a pallet knife so it stays thick even when you add water
@@ilovedoraemon519 Water does nothing. It still feels like garbage.
The issue that most people run into with acrylic paints is that they expect it to behave like other paints. For example, you can lay it on thick for opacity or thin with water for transparency. These issues arise when you lay it on thick and try to spread/stretch/blend colors as you would with oil paints, it gets "icky". When you thin with water for transparency like watercolors, it dilutes the binders or their adhesive quality. That's why you end up lifting the previous layer of color. Next time, try using an acrylic matte medium to thin the paints and approach it with a glazing method. I think in the end, that's why my preferred medium is gouache. ;)
You dont use water for acrylics??? My life is a lie
@@8unnylover right!!!! I have multiple acrylic paintings with added water for transparency 🤣🤣🤣 I guess we’re the chosen ones 😂
@@8unnyloveryou use it if you want them to act like a watercolor. Acrylic is like baking, you need to know how much mixture you need to get the consistency that you want.
@@jaythemachine3845you do for water based acrylic for some reason he is using heavy body which is why his painting was so off and it just sat on top of the painting. Heavy body acrylic is meant for canvases.
Gouache is fantastic
I use acrylic paints when crafting. Painting wood, cardboard, posters, paint pours (with added pour medium/soap). They have great color and coverage. But i can NOT imagine them being able to blend and layer in your style. I agree with another comment about mixing the color in a palette first, then using it.
It's great for crafting and low detail work. And for covering a large area, cause you usually only need 1, maybe 2 coats to get a nice solid layer of color. And they are relatively inexpensive.
Unfortunately, that's pretty much the opposite of your preferred style and techniques. And that's okay!!! Different tools for different jobs. It makes me feel better seeing artists i admire talk about their limitations and stuff. Thank you for sharing, and I hope your new year is chalk-full of rockin fun!! 🧡🧡🧡
"here's everything i know about acrylic paints. Nothing."
The nothing :
I'm actually learning how acrylics and from what I learned you don't make a pencil sketch, you make a big splotch on the canvas and then start giving it shape and details. Also, it's better to start of only with the primary colours. My art teacher told me this and it's true for me.
A lot of acrylic artists though make a pencil sketch and it doesn’t have to be splotches of shapes and details. But it’s an opinion so there aren’t any rules to it
I think the primaries thing is just a way to force you to learn color theory. I was told the same thing about watercolors when I first started painting. It's a good idea for anyone painting for the first time no matter what medium. Learn how to mix and blend to get the colors you want from primaries and add the convenience colors later when you're more knowledgeable about how they work.
Did you try using soft body or fluid acrylics? It looks like in this video you were using heavy body acrylic paint which is very thick and clumsy.
Finally someone said it 😆 I'm an oil paint gal myself. I've noticed that when I use acrylics at friends' painting parties it's just not the same and it just doesn't seem to stay nice afterwards 🤷🏼♀️ Maybe it's just the quality, but I've noticed those paintings chip more over time. Perhaps I should use a finish? Idk
You should use a varnish lmao
I need to get myself to a painting party and I don’t even know how to paint.
it definitely needs a varnish coat, actually two or three usually. That should prevent the chipping problem.
U need to use medium and not so much water.
Even guashe can chip if you cake it, acrylic is basically plastic, ofc it'll chip by itself. Just like how oil will forever be smudgeable
Try watering them down with water! It’s a lot easier to move them around. I understand your struggle- I had that problem before as well, add water.
I know the brand he is using. It's Liquitex HEAVY BODY.
With that specific brand and type he won't be able to water it down nicely. They weren't meant to be watered down. If he was using Golden brand heavy body then its fine. But the liquitex isn't very good. It's a great brand but their heavy body paint just behave differently.
What he needs to do instead is take Soft Body acrylics. They're thinner. Liquitex has Soft Body version and I love those. Very fluid.
Watering down acrylics makes the longevity of the painting decrease more. It can chip in a couple years if the paint was heavily watered down :o a better solution would be some sort of acrylic slow dry medium/retarder
@@fangirl1234fangirl I know, I am just saying it makes them easier to move around. If your looking for longer lasting paint then you should find a better solution, in my experience I’ve used watered down acrylics and had no problem, but that’s not the same for everyone.
@@merryryely or invest in paint mediums for acrylic so the set of heavy body doesn't go to waste.
While water can be a good option in some cases in others its best to use a specific medium bc they can improve the flow and texture of the paint in a way water cant. Not only that, but it gives you complete control over the paint finish when it dries. Plus you can use different mediums with different finishes on a single piece to make a focal point pop.
Your techniques and way of painting are suited to mediums like watercolor and gouache. It's not that you're bad with acrylics, your method of painting just isn't suited to them. And since you've been painting for sooo long, your techniques are just unconsciously engrained into your mind sooo deeply, that it might be difficult to paint differently even if you try to. They'll always always shine through

@@troy4298 op changed their comments, they said something like "thanks for the tip" before
What I like about acrylics is that you don't have to layer to get shades or shapes. Perspective art is really good with them.
“ I’ve made a mess”
Me: that looks amazing! 😊😁
Tell me why I thought that was a painting of Gargamel from the Smurfs
It's crazy because that "icky"ness you referred to is actually one of the reasons I love using acrylic paint. My best works come from slightly wetting the heavy tones and letting g that ickyness work with the light tones and highlights. Gives a nice texture when you work it right. Using not just normal brushes but also scraping tools and wire brushes. Q tips are great for small details too. Little flower gloops. 🌼
Me, who paints almost exclusively with acrylics:
👁👄👁
I was actually curious if you’ve ever done work in oil? Personally it’s my favorite medium and I don’t think I’ve seen you talk about it on your channel! But if you don’t like acrylics maybe that’s why haha
Either way, fun vid! Keep it up!
Ive always wanted to try oil, but someone who loves sketchbooks and small scale paintings, oil is too stinky and long drying for me to mess around with hehe
@@blobbita Oil itself is usually non-smelling, it’s the cleaning agent (Turpentine) that’s what is super toxic and bad smelling. But there is an odorless, non-toxic version of it called Turpenoid which much safer to use. There’s also something called Liquin or Galkyd which is a medium that speeds up the drying process of oil significantly! (I’ve gotten stuff to dry in an hour with it) Plus you can totally do small scale paintings in oil, I just finished a little 9x12” wolf painting ^^
The only REAL downside is that all of this costs a pretty penny and if you end up not liking oil, that wouldn’t be great. If you ever have the chance to take like a one-day class or something where you could try out oils I would definitely recommend that :>
Sorry for the long winded response but I hope it helped a little!
“Look at how much of a mess it is” me: damn this guys “bad” is my perfect………

I’d recommend adding a bit of water to it to water it down (if it’s professional acrylics) and usually I’ll start with light colors then move to darker ones, hope you see this and if you do hope it helps
Have you tried mixing corn starch with acrylic paint?(I love your channel and I think you're a amazing artist. I'm using my mum's account and I'm nine and want to be an artist when I'm older and you inspire me so much so thank you so much from Merry💖💖💖)
From what I've learned, acrylics are best for blending and you can get pristine shading between colors if used right. Acrylics are also good for (re)painting toys and objects, specifically toy dinosaurs.
i lovw how he calls his house his "hobbit hole"- I call my ROOM my hobbit hole- so i find that really cool 😭
I love how he called them icky 😂
Acrylics are really good to use actually! And incase you choose the not so professional one, mix the paint with cornstarch.
It’ll make the paint just like professional acrylic.
Also a tip for Acrylics: when blending, use a wet paint brush, it will give the acrylic a smooth blend
I've been using acrylics for 34 years and never heard the cornstarch idea. Mixing them with the cheaper or mid-grade level acrylics turns the consistency into the pro grade acrylics, really?
@@__ocean_arts__ First time I ever heard it. Might give it a shot.
The reason is that you are using thick body acrylics, which are more expensive and are the ones you are using. You should use normal acrylics because they aren't muddy.
I love the fact that you use the word agita ❤️
Dude, you should make an online art class or something. I want to get into a new art style and I’ve been watching you for help. You should really try to make whole “classes” your kinda a teacher lol
The thing is, if you are going from watercolor to the heavy body paints you’ve been using, since they are basically polar opposite paints, of coarse you are going to have trouble. Maybe start with a thinner paint. By the way, I’m not an expert, but I think the heavy body paints are meant for less detailed works, like a solid color background.

as a fellow acrylic painter, i LOVE acrylic!
I, as an artist that uses acrylics, can confirm that we are all icky just like our paint.
"heres everything I know about acrylics, Nothing!"
*Sounds like me*
omg- thank you for a heart! Im ten and I got into watercolours just because of you btw, and my mom said its the hardest course, can you maybe post a few tutorials of small and easy watercolou paintings if possible and please do, I would be really happy, Thank you!
As a painter, I understand. My favourite thing to paint with is watercolours but I actually first started painting with acrylics to I still use them alot. Acrylics are very funky.
Watercolor is hard because you need to plan early where to put highlights, i hate it.
I personally would recommend Apple Barrel acrylic paint. Its my favorite medium and seem like the type of thing that can change your mind on my beloved acrylics.
Scott: i can’t do acrylic. It’s so difficult. I cant make it work
Scott with acrylic: *better than any painting Ive ever done*
This is EXACTLY how I feel about arclyics. They dry too fast and get thick and just nope. Oil paints with some medium mixed in is for me
The painting is beautiful, but it is always acceptable to not like the art you have created. I love painting with acrylics and I respect your opinion. You have probably heard this before but I believe there is different things to help you blend acrylics. As a young artist though, I just use water on my brush when having a hard time blending and it works great! I hope you will try it out!
I’m very much so a watercolor, pen, pencil, charcoal, and dry pastel person, so when I had to paint something for my art class and it had to be acrylic specifically and I hadn’t used acrylic in I think 6 years? Yeah no I wasn’t thrilled. To me, it’s always felt like painting with melted crayons that just stick to everything and never blend how I want them to on the paper
I think your good in watercolor so I recommend you to mix 80%water and 20%acrylic paint I know it because I am a professional artist in acrylic painting
They felt like they were weighted because you are using heavy body which is incredibly thick. If you use the normal somewhat thin (saying that because it’s thinner than the heavy body) I’m assuming it would feel similar to gauche. I haven’t used gauche but by the looks of it i would assume it similar.
I just did an art project in school where we used acrylic pant. So we were learning about the color wheel and our project was to draw a painting in a color wheel if that makes any sense. Basically we had to draw a circle and cut it into 12 sections and draw a picture and then we would paint that picture but each section would be a color from the color wheel. Acrylics are hard to use but my adhd brain loved when it would make a pattern when I used to much paint if you get me? It’s confusing to explain.
honestly it’s beautiful don’t be ashamed, but if it helps you just so you know acrylics are more for painting objects not paintings, your not really meant to paint on paper with them, or at least I think, if all those 5 minute crafts videos on my fyp have taught me it’s ACRYLICS CAN BE USED FOR PAPER BUT ARE NOT MEANT FOR PAPER (I think)
Hmmm I wonder if you would like oil paints... They're pretty thick textured like acrylic but you can water them down with linseed oil so I feel like you might be a bit more comfortable with them.
Try an thin underpainting, with 3 paints, before doing colors, takes a hot minute but worth it
It’s probably because your using thick body acrylic try using normal acrylic. Hope this helps!
yesss finally someone one said it 🗯️🤭
I had a similar issue until I started painting with craft paint. Then, once I began to get frustrated with how water sometimes worked for blending and sometimes didn't, and my paint was drying WAY to quickly, I learned about something called acrylic paint retardant. That stuff is like miracle juice for paint. Now, blending acrylics is like blending watercolor, offer as some people have said (as I have yet to try oil paint) oils. I would love to have you try these and see what you think. I have a feeling some of your emotions toward acrylics may just change ;)
I love acrylics a lot! They’re heavier and spread less than watercolour, but are more opaque which means brighter colours! They also can be used to create more sharp and defined shapes! Acrylics also don’t warp paper as much, I don’t know much about watercolour or anything expensive, but acrylics can be really good if you learn to use them. Also you can combine materials like acrylics with watercolours or pencils with markers to add texture and shape you otherwise wouldnt be able too! If your not gonna use the acrylics I will take them because I’m broke(thats a joke) :)
I paint my cabbage portraits with acrylics because I’m cheap and don’t bother to buy anything expensive
I know you’re not going to see this but I want to give you some advice. Like maybe you should try doing a 3D thing with acrylic paints, that is what I am into and it is easier
As a broke artist I will HAPPILY take those acrylics off your hands
"i know nothing about acrylic paints"

Do realism and blend the colors without it being chunky
You may need to water down your acrylics a little bit . That’s what I do.
