20 min - Practice Values
Art practice. Steps and process to building your artistic style. Values are easily taught starting in a Black to white gray scale, seeing the values clearly. Start with your photograph. Go to edit, Select the filter "Noir" A reduced amount of values in black and white. Print the image to use as a reference, select an 8x10 canvas, black and white paint. Mix your gray tones, adjust as needed to get as close to the values as the reference. Training the eye to see the variation. The further back in the image the strength of the value should decrease ( whites less white and blacks less black) keeping the darkest darks and brightest whites in the foreground creates depth.

I had to scratch back the paint, and remove as much as I could to redefine the highlights and the shadows of this little hand. The video starts with my first marks to the completion. I enjoy working with wet on wet and moving the paint around sometimes blending right on the canvas. A small clip of my process.

Bowl of crabs Continued - Part 2
Part 2 – Acrylic Painting Tutorial from a Photograph | Bowl of Crabs on Birch Panel 🦀🎨 In this step-by-step acrylic painting tutorial, I continue working on Bowl of Crabs, focusing on loose, expressive brushwork on a birch panel. I finish the piece with glazing techniques, charcoal accents, and a couple coats of varnish for depth and protection. This session is all about enjoying the process—I painted along with my favorite music and let intuition guide the brush. Toward the end, I share a few practical acrylic painting tips for artists of all levels. Feel free to turn down the volume and paint along with music that inspires you. Relax, experiment, and remember—you can always paint over it. That’s how we grow as artists. ✨ Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more acrylic painting tutorials and art process videos! #AcrylicPainting #PaintingTutorial #ArtProcess #LoosePainting #AcrylicArt #BeginnerPainting #ArtTips #PaintingFromPhoto #ContemporaryArt #ArtYouTube #CreativeProcess #learntopaint

Bowl of crabs Part 1 HD 720p
Part 1 – Acrylic Painting Tutorial | Bowl of Crabs Still Life on Wood Panel 🦀🎨 In this acrylic painting tutorial, I begin a still life piece titled Bowl of Crabs, working from a reference photo onto a 16x16 birch panel. The surface is prepped with layers of gesso and remnants of a previous painting—I love starting this way because it adds texture and depth right from the beginning. This video focuses on building the foundation and overall structure of the painting. I keep things quiet and intuitive here—mostly painting, minimal talking, and a bit of music to set the mood. It’s all about watching the process unfold naturally. 👉 Be sure to check out Part 2, where I refine the piece with loose brushwork, glazing, charcoal accents, and final varnish to bring everything together.
