    I love this portrait! The details are amazing. What a wonderful tribute for the family.
    I’ve only ever used acrylic paints but I really want to try oils….what would you recommend starting out?

    • @LukeDurdin
      @LukeDurdin  Рік тому

      Both are fine and have their pros and cons.
      Acrylics are water based which makes for easy cleanup and faster drying.
      Oils tend to be richer in pigment and slower drying times.
      You need to learn about fat over lean if your going to layer oils.
      Also want to educate yourself about oil mediums and solvents before using them as they can be very toxic if used incorrectly

    Thank you so much for sharing your talent! Do you sign your paintings on the front?

    • @LukeDurdin

      I sign my paintings on the back.
      I feel sometimes a signature can distract the viewer.

    I love your paintings and your process. I am a new painter and have gotten pretty good at painting pets. I’ve sold a bunch of these, but I’ve been told I’m pricing them way too cheap.
    Should I just start marking them way up and continue to paint ones on my own to practice and build a portfolio? Or continue taking commissions every couple of weeks but for only 75 bucks

    • @LukeDurdin
      @LukeDurdin  Рік тому +1

      That's a business decision that is totally up to you. If you find your so swamped and can't fulfill all your commissions, it's time to raise your prices. Just remember you can always raise your prices, but never lower them.
      You should always be practicing to get better, so make time for that regardless of your decision.
