Part 1: Creating the Canvas: Palette Knife and Brush

Lesson Overview

Skill Level: advanced
Length: 15 Minutes 06 Seconds
Description:

In this part, I will help you create the foundation of the painting using a palette knife and brush. I use the canvas to act like an old distressed wall in an old church.

Paint for Background: Medium grey of your choice in acrylic. Choose warm instead of cool grey. However, be sure not to have too much magenta in the base of the grey. This chart is a great color source for greys. I like the Flannel Grey and Natural Grey.
