The 4 Things I WISH I Had Known BEFORE I Started Painting; IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT EASIER!

I wish someone had shared these 4 IMPORTANT STRATEGIES as to how to PAINT and how to THINK about painting! These are the 4 areas where I struggled the most and how things could have been much easier. I believe my paintings could have gotten better more quickly, and I could have ENJOYED the painting process MUCH more!
This channel is designed to encourage the beginner and more advanced artists. I believe if you can be taught to read and write, you can be taught to paint!
I will be posting a lot of tips and techniques. A main focus will be to help you IDENTIFY PROBLEM AREAS in your paintings and HOW TO CORRECT THEM. Subscribe today so you don't miss any new posts!
