🎨 .... ART. CLASS ..., 🖼

@Smc @Former-Member @Appleblossom @Former-Member @PeppiPatty and anyone else with an appreciation for the world of art ....

Hi and welcome ....

Here is a gallery space for art in all its forms .... posting a piece of your own work, perhaps in progress .... sharing a favourite artist .... just coming to browse occasionally .... a meeting of minds and experiences through creative expression.

Re: 🎨 .... ART. CLASS ..., 🖼

Thanks @Bella1978
Its very messy ( well for me anyway 😉 ) but its fun and rather easy. It has the element of surprise because you really dont know how its all going to turn out. I done a few but i really didnt like them but its ok all in good fun and learning.
Ill see if i can upload the links i found most helpful and share them so others can have a go too if they like.

Re: 🎨 .... ART. CLASS ..., 🖼

@outlander, the ones you don’t like, choose a couple of new colours, and work the same canvases, new colours over and into the old, like layering, and see if you are happier with them.

If you don’t like them as they are, you have nothing to lose except the cost of the extra paint ..... but if you’re selling them off anyway, you will recoup those costs.

Choose your pricing between the cheaper ones you can find in discount stores, and professional ones at high-end art stores and see how you go.

Re: 🎨 .... ART. CLASS ..., 🖼

Would you make the canavas white again though so i could pick a different colour theme? Or just put the new colours straight over the top?

Oh yes i plan to get better quality stuff. I need to find bigger bottles though as i only had the cheap but smaller tubes but they run out quickly (though i did make quite alot)

Officeworks has some but its 10 for only small ones too think it was 100mls which is the same size ones as im already using. Will shop around for some better deals so the paints last a little longer. @Faith-and-Hope

@outlander

loving your creativity and colours...

I might be wrong...I think that cheap shops...all have different names as well as in different states...sell acrylic paints...

you might be looking at buying larger quantities if doing so many though..

bulk suppliers...online? or googling bulk suppliers close by so that you can see the colours in reality..

is there another art thread on here...some of the folk who have been doing this for year should be able to give you some ideas...

had forgotten about painting over old canvasses as @Faith-and-Hope advised...my husband is good at art and he told me that ages ago..

am itching to do something...need to do it outside though as cannot upset layout in home ..,..open inspection crap...

will tackle husband to see if he can do something in garage for me...

i shall ask for some help from all of you experts....
