Curiosity | Thoughts from the easel with Mark Waller #spiritualgrowth #acrylictechniques ExploreAcrylics 2024-05-06 | I used to think I was different.And it seemed to be so. And perhaps I am.I’m supposed to be a grown up.Practical and driven.It’s what I was taught to do.Except I never stopped looking at the fluff on moths,And the light on a bird’s wings.I found geckos hunting in the roof of leaf huts,And I stared at the sky in awe of the magic of existence.Perhaps I’m not so different.Perhaps I simply never lost my curiosity.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

Kumula - Home | Thoughts from the Solomon Islands ExploreAcrylics 2024-03-26 | Kumula.It’s almost dark.The tiny tangle of trees on the sandy cay is hot property.The frigate birds wheel and turn in ever decreasing spirals, descending in their thousands into the dark folds of the mangroves.Home.It’s silent, eerie and mesmerising.Hypnotic.It seems unreal, and demands your silence.In your silence there are the sounds of the water lapping.We sit in awe and then in the darkness we turn to our home.Kumula.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

Leaf Hut | Thoughts from the Solomon Islands ExploreAcrylics 2024-03-19 | Leaf HutWoven and tied.My basket house is beautiful.A special leaf collected,folded and sewn,tied over a particular timber,and then tied over the limbs of mangroves.Strong.A conglomeration of sweat, co-operation, song, and thousands of years of knowledge.Even more wonderful when dry inside and lulled by the sound of rain.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

The Aircraft | Thoughts from the Solomons ExploreAcrylics 2024-03-11 | Face pressed to the window.I never get sick of this.This small aircraft represents something wonderful.It's noisy and cramped. I'm going somewhere special.Coral, sand, water, and colours impossible to describe.An endless chaos of greens.Life.And the people.I well up tears of beauty.People with nothing, laughing, singing, and a hint of mischief behind their eyes.Generous and giving.These people.This jewel of a planet, so precious.It never ceases to amaze.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

Whats The Point? Thoughts from the easel with Mark Waller #meditation #meaning #makeart ExploreAcrylics 2024-01-30 | What’s the point?

Superficial | Thoughts from the easel #practicepainting #painting #acrylictechniques ExploreAcrylics 2023-10-23 | My paintings are superficial. How can they not be?Shallow manipulations of paint, and brushes. Simply colour, and material moved around on fabric.Meaningless representations of objects that have been assembled over billions of years, by forces unimaginable, and time scales incomprehensible.Sunshine, rain, a tree, and dirt. And you. Objects. Seen in awe, painted in wonder, and mesmerised by existence.

Mind Kind | Thoughts From the Easel with Mark Waller #practicepainting #mindfullnesspractice #art ExploreAcrylics 2023-09-25 | Your mind is not always kind.It will find flaws.In you, in others, in life.Perhaps there’s wisdom in sitting in front of a flower and watching it sing to a bee.Maybe there is something in quietly losing yourself, engrossed.Lost in watching the ocean.Perhaps in those moments you have left the mind behind.And your mind may then find the place to be kind.To everything, and everyone.Including you.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

Let It Be Kindness | Thoughts From the Easel with Mark Waller ExploreAcrylics 2023-08-14 | If I’m to be remembered for anything at all, maybe it will be paintings; colour, light and shapes.

Music | Thoughts from the easel with Mark Waller. ExploreAcrylics 2023-07-03 | Water over rocks, rolling over itself. Stones wearing each other down. Sand moving. The surf in the distance, bass rumbling. There's an insect droning, heard faintly in the gaps in birdsong. Leaves move over one another, and the wind moves through it all. Sometimes softly, and other times more insistent. And listen closely. The sound of air moving into your lungs. And the muffled thump of your heartbeat.

Awake | Thoughts from the Easel with Mark Waller ExploreAcrylics 2023-02-05 | Ground rocks, under feet.Pulverised, and broken into fragments.Sand.The ocean shaping, pushing and pulling.Clouds overhead, light through them.Cutting lines on their edges, casting moving shadows on the earth beneath.Trees, reaching up, touching the sky and pointing at the clouds.This, while birds wheel in the sky.And I?In this moment, I move paint over canvas.Alive.And wide awake.Join this channel to get access to perks:youtube.com/channel/UCIzzJZa8_Obui-WGHgdUnng/joinFor more great acrylic painting tips, techniques and tutorials to improve your painting processes, make sure you check out Mark's tutorial website at:explore-acrylic-painting.comFor Mark's tutorial products including his Beachscapes Paint Recipe Book, downloadable and streamable DVDs on painting water and waves, painting "start to finish" downloadable tutorials (the V-Logs) and ebooklets, go to his shop here: explore-acrylic-painting.com/shop.htmlWant to look at Mark's available works?

How to paint realistic fabric folds | FULL TUTORIAL ExploreAcrylics 2022-11-21 | Join Mark Waller in studio and learn how to paint realistic fabric folds! The process of painting fabric can be approached from a few different angles, but Mark has blocked in his darkest darks and lightest lights and then built up the mid-tones before coming back with the highlights in this demonstration of how to paint fabric.This is an awesome exercise involving blending techniques and dry brushing, and is a fun way to hone your gradation skills, which is an essential foundational skill for painting realism with acrylics (and painting realistically in general)!We have sped up parts of this video to keep it interesting, but you can always slow down those sections if you need :)Mark uses both Atelier Free Flow and Atelier Interactive Artists Acrylics for this demonstration. He’s using an old canvas that has already been painted with a sky gradation.
