In this art video I'm going to explain how to use a paint brush artistically, and creatively, to produce wonderful brush marks on a canvas or paper. The demonstration uses acrylic paint and is intended to beginners, those who are new to painting and those aspiring artists.
I explain how by varying the pressure on the brush and twisting your wrist you can create many different effects in paint. I also show how wonderfully random brushstrokes can be, and how we should aim to preserve them as beautiful individual brushstrokes.
