Improve Your Acrylic Painting with Terry Harrison

[201113sarah]

Until now I didn't know what that brush was used for. Thanks

[201113sarah]

All I can say is WOW!!!!



[Nala059]

God I love that fan brush. Thank you! That's amazing

[gmioco]

I love how the video ended...

[13SUSSIE]

Thanks for sharing with us your awesome techniques.

[vudarksky]

ok what i learned :-

1. drawing is easier than i thought though am an illustrator.

2. clean the brush after each use.

3. don't buy a cheap all in one stupid cheap brushes pack.

4. don't put the color on the paint (DUH!).

5. Fan brushes are EPIC!.

[Lanciela]

You did it in 3 minutes... It takes 10 minutes for me to make a tree and then when I take a better look at it I say to myself: What on earth is.... THAT!? Then I get off the drawing, throw it to the bin and start all over again!

[elpinceldeoro1]

thank you

[EPINERD]

Oh! so thats what you use that silly fan shaped brush for!!!

[BridgeToNeverland]

this looks so simple to do LOL, until I do it XP

[Cassiepeia]

Fanastic. Thanks so much for this video!



[ra2oush33]

thats really nice thank you :)

[VivaLaJoy77]

When Painting with Acrylic Paints, Does it matter what type of Palite* to us? Sorry that if its misspelled but I think you know what I mean. Please respond to the question. Thanks.

[leshka6]

hmm I understand acrylics use water medium but I as a painter who uses acrylic i never did viewed it that way. for one i paint as if my acrylics were oils in every way even when thinning. it really depends on the painter and skill level also i guess. in example to using both Flemish and alla prima instead of waiting for it to dry. then again its sometimes is nicer when it is dry

[XsweetCookie]

I tried this with 2 fan brushes and it still doesn't look like a tree T^T its a lot harder then it looks

[Confuzzliseded]

Fanbrush. T.T

This is mindblowing. All I needed was a different brush??

[sparkgurl12]

You made this a bajillion times easier by showing this technique! I'm 13 and my Mom loves trees when they change in Autumn, so I figured I would paint one. Thanks so much!

[MrEbner10]

[TheOriginalAly]

@vlindervvv Try selling them at local farmers markets or if any stores in your area have a bulletin board out front you could print up some flyers with pictures of your work at post them there. You could also set up a website and post pictures and you could put the website link on the flyers. Hope this helps! Good luck!

[SammyMelody]

Thank you! I will try this out! ^^

[artistsnetwork]

wwwterryharrisonartcom

[artistsnetwork]

Not sure is he sells his work or not though. Enjoy!

[vlindervvv]

can some one please answer me what you all do with these wonderful paintings. do you keep them or do you sell them? if you sell them , where and how?

[BooRawrGrr]

thats amazing :D

[KevinMcCainStudios]

Interesting video

[EvelynWaffle]

Wow this is a really nice demonstration.

[OneUpMushroom]

I bought a fanbrush and was excited. BUT, when I apply paint to the brush the bristles all stuck together making it look like a fork. Am I doing something wrong?

[anenigmainme]

@OneUpMushroom i think you have too much paint on the brush which causes the bristles to clump together, use less color :)

[OneUpMushroom]

@anenigmainme Ill give it a try. Thank you.

[J4archae]

@OneUpMushroom

your paint may be too watery.. try first on a scrap piece of paper, when you achieve appropriate effect , then use on your canvas or paper.

[BellLovesAlesana]

I want some people to look at my painting that I uploaded today and tell me if i shoudl make more videos about painting. The video is from long ago and my painting has gotten much better, so i hope you all can give me some feedback! Thank you in advance

[gopalpayoor]

The vedeo is great education,Only would like to know from where or how can I get a fan brush.

[koleton96]

What kind of canvas did u use and how do u make such brilliant strokes for the tree without the stubble effect when u paint??

[hmeraat9]

can we make a fanbrush from our normal brushes??????

[hmeraat9]

can we make a fanbrush from our normal brushes??????

[dtstarcher111]

the whole video im like wtf this is bullshit. he does it so easy it makes me feels stupid

[Crysis482]

Remember comrade, always practice atleast 3 times a day. Who knows, you may be the next Van Gogh!

[sokofane]

and I always wondered, how arists are doing the foliage of the tree, cuz it always looked so imposible to do ;o

[spitharoo]

Now I remember why I don't paint anymore. Because something that looks as easy as this is SO very hard for me to do. 

[ELPaso1990TX]

Very helpful, thanks

[Kurolli]

keep in mind for the tree details he used a fanbrush, fanbrushes are awesomesauce~

[low72]

@Kurolli awesomesauce with ah spooget!

[vilmapatio]

what kind of canvas did you use?

[tazio998]

You barely did anything and it looked amazing!!!!(:

[DzKepo]

[shereenaqvi]

[keybored06]

awesome man!!.. wow!!.. lovd it!

[TheCeweq]

simple and arts!

[SAMPfanKAKASHI]

muy bueno

[fabfauna]

I like the wet-on-wet version way better than the other. The blending of the colours really makes the tree stand out more.

[andarks]

I love your trees!



[IaStaiMaPutin]

thanks for the tip :)

[smarterthanawaffle]

I read somewhere (John Carlson) that the trunk of the tree in relation to the foliage is equivalent to the stem of apple to the body of an apple.

[powerwolfDA]

@smarterthanawaffle That's only true in certain trees

[07RockerGirl]

OMG!! you are amazing and you make it look so easy to which encourages me the most!! LOVE your work!!

[juliaonthe101]

this is awesome! looks so easy :)

[wotchermuggle]

Even though I draw mostly abstract, I wanted to learn how to do trees - thank you so much. Easy how-to guide that looks fantastic.

[mirakissez88]

Big wooow, i loved it, can you please teach us how to use acrylic colors in abstract original paintings?? you are an excellent teacher! :-)

[gimmeurcash]

Whoa, he just painted two awesome tree under 5 minutes! This blew my mind! *o*

[Cobra0911]

This is what is awesome about youtube. I have not painted in about 10 years. I can watch a video an get right back into it! Thank you for your video

[Shancus32796]

Ah, I love these type of teachers on youtube who aren't all in your face about things :)

[comandante583]

that was great.... but now I think my trees are ugly :(

[gd567890dA]

@comandante583 Atleast they LOOK like trees! Mine now looks like a mushroom cloud! Or a mushroom!

[hafza123]

that was amazing, cant wait to try this out

[daccasham84]

how cool was that. Good teacher.

[xXxKittyKattiexXx]

This is so amazing.

I've tried painting trees earlier, but never in this way, so they didn't look realistic. I feel so stupid for not remembering this. This video helped a lot really.

[RunningKitten]

OH so you use different brushes? XD i never thought of that

[Jessie3443]

how do you get the brush to fan out like that? help, anyone?

[tamniboo]

@Jessie3443 it's a fan brush? XD

[mosesdigitalguy4341]

@Jessie3443 THERES A BRUSH THATS ALREDY BOUGHT LIKE THAT

[LightninOV]

@Jessie3443 it's a type of brush called a fan brush.

[OhGollyJustine]

he makes it look so easy! is it really that easy?!?!

[IceKitty337]

@OhGollyJustine ha ha!! no. not at all.

[cyreelluvzanime]

cool! i'd love to have that brush!! so easy!

i like the first one better though, when you didnt wait for it to dry

[mbf2756]

this was amazing and very useful.......thank u so much..

[LpJunior537]

everytime i go to do the highlights with oil, the paint just blends together in a blurry mush. why

[tennebanoit]

@LpJunior537 u need to dry the painting before puting on the highlight.

[qetuoa13579]

I would have liked to have seen the end result but thank you very helpful

[Justforyourpleasure]
