In today’s tutorial, How to paint a Mandala Triptych Acrylic Painting Process by Barbara Din, we see the step by step process of creating what Barbara calls a Zendalada. The art supplies used in the process include acrylic paints and MDF.
About her Youtube channel Barbara says, “Come explore the arts & crafts universe with me! Time lapse processes, tutorials and tips that will, hopefully, inspire you. If you’re into painting, drawing, art journaling, or crafting, join me in some experimenting on different surfaces, with traditional and non-traditional materials and art supplies, and in finding new ways to use them. Some mandalas here, some ink there, fluid art and acrylic pouring, strange texture pastes, acrylic paints on rocks… I’m an art explorer, and I invite you to join me on my never ending journey of discovery.”

Today’s video, Montage of Elspeth McLean Dot Painting, was created by Elspeth herself. Here is what she says about the video:
“For this video I made a montage of all my instagram 15 second videos. They are short and sweet and give unique and varied insights into my painting and technique. Videos are in real time and have not been sped up or slowed down.
I felt that this video needed something fun and funky to go along with it so hubby, some friends and I made this little song.
Adam Dobres- Guitar, bass, ukulele, strum stick, cajon, water drop, finger snaps, tamborine. Paisley Love Rose- Words and Vocals, finger snaps
Elspeth McLean- bird noises, hand whistle, backup vocals, bells, australian clap stick and rattle, sitar, otter noise.
Lulu Love Rose- bells, finger snaps, back up vocals, rain stick.
Taz the cat- meows.
