hello everyone my name is John Magne Lisondra and today I'm going to demonstrate on how
to blend the acrylics my own ways so this are the most common ways that I blend using
acrylic paints.
And the first one will be the wet-on-wet technique, so in this technique we are going to use two
different values of colors like this blue here so I just paint it here
and all you have to do is just add the other value of color here which has different value
like the lighter blue color and all you have to do is to meet the two colors at the center
in which we are going to blend it together to achieve a smooth fuse between the two colors
okay. so as you see guys I am putting it or fusing it at the center to have a smoother
blend.
okay.
So that's it the wet-on-wet technique.
The second one will be the wet-on-dry technique in which as you see guys I have already here
the blue background color which is already dry and on this technique guys we only need
to cover it with the desired color that we are going to blend the background which is
the as you see on the screen is the lighter blue color so all we have to do is blend it
until we get the perfect blend between the two colors, the perfect fuse between the two
colors. and this technique guys good when you have a longer time painting just like
when you paint the sky and all you have to do is just paint the blue color first then
you just have to add the lighter color later after the paint dries.
so that's it guys that will be the second method. and the last one for me will be tone
one color blending or glazing in which you have to use one color only like this blue
here and then on the edge of the color you just have to blend it using water guys but
I don't recommend using water, you need to use the glazing medium because water will
lessen the consistency of the acrylic binder in which that is not good for conservation
of your painting and I don't recommend it.
So just use the glazing medium if you have so water guys.
You can water but I tell you that it will have a problem in the future.
Ok that's it guys, that will be the 3 ways in color blending using acrylic, so if you
have more ways then you can comment or suggest whatever it is, I know that there are lot
