Media Deit
While I was scrolling through pinterest looking at different art for inspiration, I came across this piece which I really took a liking to and kept looking at it for quite a while. I really enjoyed the dream like cozy feel it gave me and all the details in it really fascinated me.
What is it?
This is a painting by 'Artsbymina' its called- 'By the river'. I had found the painting on pinterest posted by someone who wasn't the artist. Thankfully someone in the comments mentioned the artist so I took their name and google searched it. From there I found her youtube channel, her social media accounts and her Carrd and Etsy shop.
She is an artist who works by herself and in her tags she mentions she uses gouache and acrylic paints. Some of her work she uses supplies either bought or given to her and always tags the suppliers, mainly on instagram. On one of her posts she has tagged @artifyartsupplies for the paint brushes she got from them. Other than tagging the companies that supply her she works completely on her own.
Behind the scenes
Artsbymina has a video up on her youtube channel "Gouache Painting Tutorial | Paint With Me - By The River", going through the whole process of the painting that I found a liking to on pinterest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl6Cc7ynQ-4. The video has the whole process of her painting, from the sketch to the final outcome. Watching the video was very inspirational to me and made me develop more interest in gouache paint. I loved how the process of her painting went from messy to everything being put together and turned into a beautiful piece in the end.
