Julie's Art Vlog 62: Making Glazes & Washes from Garbage

Don't throw away that empty acrylic paint bottle! It's not really empty and you can make a "new" bottle of paint from it. In this video I show you how and I share a bit about how Glazes and Washes are similar but different. Fluid Matte Medium: shrsl.com/4l7pv is what I use to make my glazes.

As I mentioned in the previous podcast, Mom and I snuck in the night before the Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) here in Boston The museum's annual Art in Bloom event at the end of April. This is always one of my favorite events of the year.

In case you don't know what Art in Bloom is: It's a weekend festival that transforms the Boston MFA's galleries into a floral showcase, with floral designers and garden clubs from across the region carefully crafting arrangements inspired by the museum's artworks. The Boston MFA invented the "Art in Bloom" idea in 1976. Since then many other museums have taken up the idea (it's a good one) and ...

5 Common Artist Problems that an Art Practice Can Solve

An art practice is a system that helps you to regularly create your own unique art. 🎨 I have taught thousands of students over the past twenty years and I hear many of the same worries come up over and over again: - "I don't know what my style is." - "I'm all over the place and I can't seem to focus." - "I don't like the art I'm making." - "I have trouble making decisions." - "I'm not really an...

Why Does an Art Practice Matter? Why Do Artists Need a Practice?!
Просмотров 545Месяц назад
An art practice is a structured and intentional approach to creating art. Just as anyone can go for a run, anyone can make art. But understanding proper form can help you avoid a running injury. Training with friends can help motivate you. Running can be a way of life without being a profession. All of that is true of art as well. Whether you're a hobbyist or a pro, an art practice is a way to ...
What is an Art Practice? It's More Than Just Making Art!

An art practice is more than the act of creating artwork. The part we generally see of an artist's art practice is all the public facing activities: finished artwork and some art making activities. It could be a short process video or a photo of making artwork. But an art practice entails so much more! It's research and thinking and planning and writing and so many other activities that aren't ...

    Here's the thing, I paint what appeals to me. Because I want to use a new paint combination or because I saw something I thought would be a nice painting or just fun to paint. I'm not thinking about anything in particular when I paint. And, in my experience, that isn't the art statement galleries want. My thoughts, or lack of thoughts, are never quite so 'flowery'.

    • @BalzerDesigns
      @BalzerDesigns 3 дня назад

      One of the many wonderful things about art is that you can make art for any reason or no reason at all. I think that writing statements is a skill, just like painting and drawing. You can develop the skills if you're interested in working at it. It's always a choice. Do you want to try to fit in with what you see at the galleries around you, or are you perfectly happy doing your own thing? There are no wrong answers, just what's right for you. ❤ I've worked hard - for several years - to develop my writing (and my thinking) skills because I want to show my work in spaces that require that kind of thing. Not everyone has the same goals and that's great.

    working in a studio at home that is open to the rest of the house can be easily distracting, especially with those of us who struggle with focus. Sometimes, it's the dogs and cats, sometimes my husband talking to me, sometimes it's the laundry, etc, sometimes it's just me. This is one thing I like about in person classes; you are "forced" to focus. I'm also a big proponent of setting time limits and I use timers or my watch. Great discussion.

    This is precisely what I wanted to know. The creatives look great but they seem thin, especially on the black which is concerning since they don't blend. On a side note I'm sure the wipes have some amount of alcohol or other solvent which explains the bleeding when you used them.

    I've added water to the dregs of my fluid paints, but didn't label them. I'd just shake them to listen for viscosity difference. Now I will. label them and do some with the fluid matte medium, which I bought by accident. This is a great way to use it.
