How to get paint out of paint brushes!?

My mom is screaming because i was painting with exterior house paint. And i didn’t wash it out, so its now stuck to the brush. Remember, its exterior house paint. How to get it out?!

If the paint is oil-based (which, if it’s exterior house paint, it probably is), you’ve got to soak the brush for a few hours at least, or overnight in varsol, mineral spirits or paint thinner. If you’ve left the brush out long enough that the paint has dried and hardened, it’s virtually impossible to get it all off at this point. If, however, the paint is latex or water-based, soak it in a mixture of warm water with a little fabric softener added. Again, though, if you left the brush to dry so that it’s now hard as a rock, it may never come completely clean. Good luck!

How to paint your pets portrait

This is a tutorial on how to paint your own pet portrait without having a background in art. I myself do pet portraits but went to the Slade School of Fine Art in London England, however I learned some tricks along the way for those who have no clue about drawing or art. Hope you enjoy creating your very own painting of your pet!

Here are the colors I used:

Titanium White
French Ultramarine Blue
Burnt Sienna (a brown)
Burnt Umber (a dark brown)
Alizeran Crimson (a red)
Cadmium Yellow
Cadmium Orange

Other colors that are a good beginners palate:
Cadmium Red
Yellow Ochre

Mars Black (however you can mix black from the primary colors, or create a nice off black by mixing burnt sienna and ultramarine blue) My tip is to never use real black in your painting except in tiny quantities.

If you find that the graphite has dirtied your picture, simply wash it off with soap and water.

If you let the painting dry between layers, or if you blow dry your painting between layers, you will be able to erase any mistakes you make on the top layer with a little warm water and a sponge.

Tip: Change your water constantly so that it is clear. If you mix colors with muddy water you will get a muddy painting

Tip: For fine lines and edges make sure to add a little water for a smoother easier to paint line.

Tip: Dole out the money for the smallest brush sizes, as buying a cheap small sized brush will just cause you heart ache and frustration.

This same method can be used for painting any animal or human portrait.

See you next time!!!!!
