3 things I wish I knew before becoming an artist 1. Supplies are expensive. No matter how you paint or what you paint, you will spend a lot on supplies. From brushes, to paints to canvases, you will always need more. 2. Cheap supplies are not the best. For example, cheap paint often contains a lot of filler than pigment so you end up using a lot. If you can afford it, spend a couple extra dollars to get something better. You end up saving more in the long run. 3. You will receive a lot of hate. People online are so annoying. They will complain about anything and everything. If you paint abstract they’ll say their toddler can do, but if you paint realistically they’ll say you’re just copying from a photo. #artisttips #artisttalk #acrylicpainting #impastoart #impasto #foodart #foodpainting #3dpainting
