Big Canvas Painting Demo: Embracing the Messy Middle

In this week's video, I continue working on the abstract painting from my previous video. It already has some marks and collage papers on it, and now I am building up layers and integrating mixed media elements using acrylic paint, including fluid and slow-drying open acrylic.

Let me know if you're interested in seeing what happens next. I'm enjoying this relaxed approach to creating YouTube videos, where I invite you into one of my painting sessions and share what I am up to. There is little planning involved, just unfiltered painting. I hope you enjoy too!
