well here we go oh it's nothing fooled you it's a
metaphor for confidence and how you just need to believe in yourself
no i'm actually just kidding it's it's a real tool it's right here it's actually
shop paper towels this stuff is amazing for your painting career and the whole
reason why is because how it absorbs paint off your canvas
you see when you paint there's a lot of variables that go into making a cloud
work well for acrylics and oil and the more variables you
add the tougher it gets hey maybe you have too strong of a base coat or your
paint's too wet or your paintbrush is just getting
contaminated every time you put paint on your canvas and it mutes out
your cloud there's a lot of things that are variables that can make it difficult
for you and if that seems like that's something
you're struggling with hey you know what get these and get these asap the proper
way to use this tool to make sure that you have clouds go on properly
is to first drop in your background now you have to visualize where you
think your cloud is going to be and when you can visualize it hey by the way it's
okay to do an outline of a cloud so that way you
have a better idea once you do that take a nice sheet of
this paper towel and i want you to rub off and rub out hey whichever one
you want keep your mind on the gutters ladies
all of the excess paint and the reason this is going to help is because when
you put it on your titanium wine or whatever color
cloud you want to put in there it's going to have something to stick to
and it's going to stop the contamination process
that is muting out your cloud essentially what these paper towels are
accomplishing for us is giving us a better foundation
for our paint to stick on the biggest mistake a lot of people make right off
the bat is they just have too much paint on the canvas and that's when they
introduce new paint it just becomes a big mismash mesh of
colors getting contaminated and nothing sticks out and you want that contrasting
colors so if you can use these paper towels
properly hey you're gonna be in a good spot to create
beautiful landscapes so you're probably wondering do i have
to use these shop towels right here no you don't you can use regular paper
towels however these are not as good as this and the
reason why is is regular paper towels are meant to
break down so when you take your square and you try to rub out your paint
the paper towel is actually going to break down which means it's going to
leave particles behind it's going to leave
little pieces of paper towel behind which can contaminate your painting or
leave bumps for when it dries that looks bad so
these will work in a pinch but you're way better off with these
plus these are made to absorb a lot more material no joke these paper towels are
one of my favorite tools for painting especially if you're struggling
wipe off the excess paint you're good to rock and roll you can use them on so
many things clouds are probably one of the most clutch spots to do it
so if you're struggling and i mean really struggling get these
trust me it'll help transform the way you paint now if you still struggle with
putting clouds on your canvas i've got two great videos that show you how to
make clouds in seconds also different ways to make clouds that
you can use these paper towels on to make
excellent beautiful clouds i'm going to put those videos over here to the side
so that way you can become a cloud master and until next time all you
beautiful people take care stay creative and of course
