Hi Cinnamon, how are you? Well I'm hoping. I have a question. How long will ALL the painting be available I'm still waiting on materials. They have been delayed due to this mess. All my love Alicia.
You are such a great teacher. I love the way you take the time to explain what you're doing. You really have a gift for what you're doing. Thank you so much. I'm disabled and don't work. I have pretty bad Scoliosis. Your channel has helped me get through some difficult times. You serve a tremendous purpose in this world.
Hi, I'm up in NE Texas. I just discovered you recently. I've been painting watercolor but have done a few acrylics. I'm retired 69. I'm going to try to do your April paintings. My son is an artist and teaches high school and college art. He sent me some new brushes and paint. Love your energy. Now to get my paints out and get started.
Hi Ronda, you're in the right place! I found Cinnamon and her Mom, Ginger Cook about 3 years ago. Wonderful teachers, great groups. I'm sure you'll enjoy your time with them.😊
Congratulations, I had stopped watching the videos because I do not know the English language and today I find the translation, CONGRATULATIONS !!!! I am with my translator.👏👏👏👏👏👏🇦🇷
🙏🔝🎨for today I’m very enjoy 😊 with you painting and I will paint it with oil 🎨but it’s not easy I’m waiting for tomorrow I wish you have a great day ❤️🎨🌹
Love your work and you are such a blessing to the people that don't believe they CAN paint! Have you ever thought about doing some JW Turner style paintings? In particular Rain, Steam and Speed? Man, I sure would love to see that! Blessings to you and yours.
Harder than I thought but I'm happy with the outcome. I totally agree with you when you said this will look good in a bigger painting. I might try it. Love you and love your channel!!
This was a great video! I’m new to your Acrylic April challenge this year. I’ve done a few of your videos in anticipation of #AcrylicApril2020. I appreciate the explanation of transitioning from lighter to darker tones in landscapes. That will help me as I really like to do landscapes. Also, the explanation of how to do the water, highlighting and shading, made for my best water results to date. One thing that would help me in future videos would be to mention when you rinse/clean your brush vs. when you want to just add the next color to the brush to blend on the canvas. Thanks and I plan to watch everyday and complete 30 paintings!

Hi theartsherpa !! This is my first Acrylic April!! I am making my own Pthalo blue and Naples Yellow - I teach ART at a library and with COVID they are closed so half my supplies are there. I am working from home with what I have. I figured Pthalo blue is maybe Prussian mixed with Cobalt or Cerulean and Naples is Yellow Ochre with Light Yellow? I am experimenting now. If you see this can you give a tip? Thanks, Cinnamon and everyone
Hi! I've been watching your paintings and did some of it. Thanks for sharing your talent. I really love painting though I'm just a newbie.... I will do it and so excited to see more of your painting 🎨 tutorials....
Thank you for a great time. Up, showered dressed with my cuppa and toast and vegemite. And it's 4am. Lol. My cat is causing trouble because my art chair is her chair. Keeps annoying me wanting attention. Then she attacked the poor dog.🙀 What a morning. And the day hasn't even started yet. Lucky I had this painting to do. 💖🐮🐕
I tried to do AcrylicApril last year but I became overwhelmed. I just got finished with my color mixing chart from last year. But I think I can do it this this year . You seem to be explaining better maybe.
I've just finished the painting! Can't wait for tomorrow's!! I just need to figure out what canvas I'm gonna use for the ladybug, I only had one 8x8 and most of my others are bigger and not square
This first painting was a great way to start the month off. Nice and bright. If I want to use canson mixed-art paper, do I need to prep it with gesso first?
I'm so excited to finally start Acrylic April! I love this one. It reminds me of one I did for last year's AA, but this one is a whole lot better. Oh, and I absolutely LOVE your bracelet!!
Hi Jigna! Yes, For Acrylic April I used 8x8 stretched canvas for all the paintings. However, 8x10 will work great! Here is a great tool if you need help resizing. Need to Resize to a different size canvas? 🎨Try the Rapid Resizer app here: www.rapidresizer.com/ Also, the grid reference and other tools are located on our website. :)
I decided to paint this on 11x14 canvas. Not painting these in order. Doing them by what I figured would be easiest first. Never thought in a gajillion years this painting would take me four days to complete. So silly....guess it's partly because I've not painted in while but still...I'm always a little hard on myself and re-do almost every part I paint. trying to match your colors.....I need to learn to be nicer to myself. Hmmm, which one to do next.....bubbles???
All i had was an 11 x14 so I measured out 8x8 in the center and painted a border. Then did my first painting in the middle. That was the best I could do. Maybe it will look okay.
Darn. When I first saw this, I got prepared and ordered some canvas panels. I could have sworn that I read 12x12. So that's what all mine will be. :) But I'm not sure how to adjust the grid. I'll wing it.
Which video list should beginners start first times? The ones that day better in 30 days and the ones that specifically say for beginners? I don't know to discriminate which ones are one hoop paintings
Go to the website here theartsherpa.com/, and click on the video tab at the top of the page, and then click the 1 hoot tab in the red bars at the top of the page. This is a listing of the 1 hoot paintings. 💚
I am very excited to start🥳. Are we still going to do the large painting for spring like we did for fall and winter. I hope so my family enjoyed it and are asking for a spring to replace the candle large painting.
Good evening mrs Cooney i was wondering how you would block this painting out on a 16x20 long ways any help greatly appreciated thank you. Love your channel
Here a a couple of links that will help that. 🖌Need to Resize to a different size canvas? 🎨Try the Rapid Resizer app here: www.rapidresizer.com/ 🎨Need to grid a to a different size canvas? 🖌 Here is an app to help with that. www.griddrawingtool.com/❤❤
Tried this on cheap acrylic paper they we panic bought before nz went on lockdown, it’s sucking up all the paint, drying too fast and pilling how can I make it workable?
Do you meant the mop for blending clouds and trees? If yes its the Ultimate Varnish brush by silver. My other fluffy is a hog bristle Silverstone round 12
Hello everyone..... First off, your bracelet is soo beautiful. Next and very important.... Thank you both for all the hrs and thought that goes into all these tutorials. I have to date watched almost all that you have on UA-cam but have only painted ,2. I would love to do more but I don't have access to the equipment needed to print off a traceable... I'm unable to get out without help due to spinal disc degeneration.... Is there any other way that you could teach one or two so that I could paint and enjoy knowing that I did something for my new great niece.... I've not been able to have cuddles yet because of lockdown .... I'm so sorry to be such a nuisance, hope there is something that youmight be able to think of..... I think that painting will help with the depression I have due to chronic pain and being isolated all the time, not just because of corvid 19. Sending much love n Bright Blessings to you, Jon and all your family and friends. Stay safe Cinnamon.... Thank you xx
I need a way to color match across brands for daler rowney cause thats the only hard body acrylic walmart has that has any other color than black red blue and white.. Sadly... I really want to try hard body instead of soft body...
Another way you able to match the colors you have is if you do the tint tone shade color chart. That’s a great tool to match mixes even if you have slightly different paint colors. I hope one of these was helpful 😊
Good question. I'm PST, so 10 a.m. I presume? (and I receive ArtSherpa Live UA-cam event notifications 2 hours after they end...Am I doing something wrong?)
Am I the only one that feels like this is less personal? I feel super rushed. Unlike last year..I think I did to small of a canvas. Going to give up and maybe try later. I don’t know if I will try this this year. I was so excited
Still do the paintings! Take your time! I watch thru first then paint along and pause/rewind as I need to! Cinnamon is an awesome artist who paints a lot quicker than I do.
@@trishb5738 I think what I would do if I only had white and purple, I would turn her painting into black and white monotone. Then I would lighten with white my purples the light spots and save my darkest color for the darkest areas. That may help.
Grid , Traceable Worksheet and References can be found here theartsherpa.com/TAS200401.01
I am all ready to go! Super excited, and this may be the only one I paint along...he he
How can I print out the reference image so I can grid it??? The only printable item I see available in the link provided is the traceable image.

Hi! I've been watching your paintings and did some of it. Thanks for sharing your talent. I really love painting though I'm just a newbie.... I will do it and so excited to see more of your painting 🎨 tutorials....
Wonderful!🖤🖤
John, you do a wonderful job of filming, and i have a request. Would you please show a close up of Sherpa's finished picture when it is finished?
I will tell John you suggestion. 🧡
Awesome 👍
Thank you for a great time. Up, showered dressed with my cuppa and toast and vegemite. And it's 4am. Lol.
My cat is causing trouble because my art chair is her chair. Keeps annoying me wanting attention.
Then she attacked the poor dog.🙀 What a morning. And the day hasn't even started yet.
Lucky I had this painting to do. 💖🐮🐕

Me too. 💛💛

yes I think I learned a lot from last year and made improvements based on feedback for this year. So glad to have you back
Love this!
This is just beautiful. Thank you for making it easy to follow. Stay safe. CINNAMON AND JOHN
This is so beautiful can't wait to try this, and it would be a lovely watercolor painting as well thanks so much, I shared you ❤
I can't wait for this! :)

This was fantastic!!!
I'm new to acrylics. I used to use oils in college. I loved BobRoss' wet on wet technique. Could that be done with acrylics?
Yes, you can use extenders to make blend times more open. 💛
Thanks 😘
💙💙💙
LOVE the structure and format of acrylic april this year!! Thank you so much!
Have you used a square canvas for all of the 30 paintings? I only have 8x10's. Will that work?
Hi Jigna! Yes, For Acrylic April I used 8x8 stretched canvas for all the paintings. However, 8x10 will work great! Here is a great tool if you need help resizing. Need to Resize to a different size canvas? 🎨Try the Rapid Resizer app here: www.rapidresizer.com/

Please be kind to yourself. These paintings build on each other for skills, and as you near the end you will be so happy you did them all. 🤍🤍

You should take the reference and Re grid it to 12 x 12 i have an app on the webpage that does it for free
that is wonderful to read
My first acrylic April painting is also a sunset at the sea😃😃... But a little different I guess😁

@@TheArtSherpa thank you!!
This was awesome can we post on Facebook group or do you have to be part of special group to do that?
I wonder if I can paint this with the acrylics that I have. They are not the heavy paste acrylics.
Yes, use what you have that is within your budget. 💗
I am very excited to start🥳. Are we still going to do the large painting for spring like we did for fall and winter. I hope so my family enjoyed it and are asking for a spring to replace the candle large painting.
We will have to get to it after Acrylic April but we sure will do. 🤍🤍
Could I use a light chalk pastel to make the grid?

What is the name of the round fluffy brush? or is it in your favorites on your website.
Do you meant the mop for blending clouds and trees? If yes its the Ultimate Varnish brush by silver. My other fluffy is a hog bristle Silverstone round 12
theartsherpa yes. I take both I have neither of those brushes...I have a pack of beginners brushes, very basic brushes
That's so peaty
Thank you I am so glad you had Fun :)

I need a way to color match across brands for daler rowney cause thats the only hard body acrylic walmart has that has any other color than black red blue and white.. Sadly... I really want to try hard body instead of soft body...
You need to look at the pigments codes. All The pigments codes are listed in the color list in the Acrylic April group. 🎈🎈
Another way you able to match the colors you have is if you do the tint tone shade color chart. That’s a great tool to match mixes even if you have slightly different paint colors. I hope one of these was helpful 😊

How did you hang all of those??
The thick stretchers make it really easy you can wire but you can direct hang too

Don't feel rushed. I watched it live then painted it all day between chores and stuff. My canvas was a small rock lol so yes I'm a slow painter😍
I havent got those colours. I have purple and white only so instead of oranges my are lilacs and purple 🤣
Ooh, I am sure it will be beautiful!
I had the oranges but no beautiful magenta so I too substituted purple for my two front dark rocks. Different but still pretty.
@@jodigrundy3043 I'm.nit very good at painting. My sky I'm very pleased with but mountains not too good.
