@jimmusilpainter: Why do I paint with acrylics instead of oils? For me, it comes down to speed. Yes Acrylics dry quickly, but I actually love that.  I can build layer after layer without waiting days for the paint to set. That lets me keep the momentum going while the painting is fresh in my mind. They also make it easy to glaze, soften edges, or paint over areas that aren't working without disturbing what's underneath. Every medium has its strengths, but acrylics fit the way I like to paint: fast, layered, and always evolving. That's why acrylic has been my medium of choice for years. Follow for more tips and happy painting! #acrylicpainting #landscapepainting

THIS!! I prefer acrylic and gouache because it doesn’t take so long to dry. Lowkey jealous of how oil blends so seamlessly but it can be done with acrylics too if done quick enough

I notice your brush isn’t too “bendy”, it almost looks like a flat knife or angled stick. Or is that just an illusion?

with the increasing use of AI, I somehow lost the spark in painting, what do you think should I do to regain it ?

I've always loved acrylics more because of this. But I've lost my spark to paint..... I feel I'm just getting worse for each year that goes by. I used to have talent and now I'm just bad at it. How tf do I get the spark and talent back?

Beautiful painting, absolutely love the atmosphere you build! I am curious whether you add any medium to acrylic paint to make it go on the canvas smoother?

This is incredible!! I’m wondering how you manage to paint without it getting streaky or running out quick? Do you just pick up a lot of paint on your brush?

I think acrylics also work good for you specifically because your painting stile is very blocky, with hard contrasts and hard or little gradients!
