ADVICE FOR BEGINNER ARTISTS

In this video I share two different painting methods I use - one I recommend for beginners and the other one I don't recommend for beginners. I also demonstrate these methods and share some of my favorite cheap art supplies that are great for beginners or professionals. I also talk about what it means to be a professional artist and what it doesn't mean. The supplies I mention are listed below.
