      So you start at the right and move across to the left? Is that backwards? Wouldn’t you smudge it as you move to the left? If you’re intention is to move vertically, the same issue might occur as well.

    i have just experimented using a long match cut to a point for the very small spaces .hold it between thumb and finger and dip it into the paint , enough to get a blob of paint just on the end and if the space is large enough place the blob of paint in the centre and spread it using the match turning the match as you get a build up of paint on the side of the match not in contact with the canvas ,.i found this gave me excellent control when spreading the paint and a very textured finish and better detail.

    • @appleknocker56
      @appleknocker56 3 роки тому

      I hadn’t but had only painted a few of the first number & paint was thicker (way more, than my usual watercolors 😳) & was trying to find ways to even get my brush to be wet enough to go 1/14th inch oh my)!
      So saw your video & how you did first one (as this is my first one) & saw what a difference w just a few changes you made the second one just look so much nicer
      & not like a DIY & knew found a kindred spirit!!
      My main question is how (know it will take experimentation) how much “gum arabic” you did add (and water you kept saying) to make paint still a matte finish but flow a bit more like watercolor is what I feel must learn as these “additive” things I don’t always know if potentially toxic?? Ty very much!!
      Also if adding too much water then found out color can change & that can be good too.

      Make a wet pallet out of a plastic container paper towel and parchment paper, place parchment ontop of few layers of paper towel and wet slightly use the surface of the parchment to thin out and mix your paint real good this makes the world's difference and stops your acrylic paint from drying can even store leftover paint over night...
