Beginner Series | Base Paint For Dot Art Mandala Painting | Thoughtful Dots

In this video we are going to discuss different types of base paint. I just want to mention that while I personally prefer painting on a black surface, this is not required for mandala art. You can paint on any color background you'd like!

If I use gesso on my MDF board, do I also need to paint black acrylic base paint on top of gesso?

That is the tricky part about painting on a white surface! I’ve used grey charcoal pencil in the past and that seemed to work okay! Maybe just a lighter color chalk or charcoal pencil other than black
