In this video, we're gonna get together and learn how to paint impressionist poppies with palette knives. This is a good lesson for beginners and up. I’m painting on a 12x16-inch stretched canvas, but you can paint on any type and size of canvas you like. The used: • A 1-inch flat brush • A small pointed palette knife • A 2 1/2-inch narrow palette knife • You'll also need an extra paper towel I’m using Liquitex Basics acrylic paints in the following colors: • Titanium White • Burnt Umber • Mars Black • Cadmium Red Deep Hue • Naphthol Crimson (can substitute Cadmium Red Medium Hue) • Cadmium Yellow Deep Hue But you can use any colors you like.
