As the only person in this thread who is actually gud at painting, I'm officially closing this thread. There is no redeeming information here. Both of these meme artists are shit.

If poor mister Gogh was here today to witness the Academian Hebrew witchcraft his life's work is subjected to, he would cut off his other ear.

Jia on the other hand could stand to hold a real brush once in a while or maybe a pencil if the weight didn't break his wrist. You show me a decent plein air painting and ill say something nice, but until this printer paper looking onions boy stands out in the sun and paints from observation like a real painter, I'm inclined to believe he'd only combust from UV damage.

Dont listen to any advice above this line.

These people are fucking retarded and you're just as big of an idiot for coming here and asking for advice.

I'm only telling you this because i feel bad for you.

THE SECRET TO ACRYLICS IS MIXING ON THE FLY AND HAVING A BUNCH OF COLORS TO MIX WITH. This means that the most critical skill you need is the ability to see and mix correct colors the FIRST TIME, because unlike oil you cant just smear shit around on the canvas and hope your shit job blends in. It wont.

KNOW your fucking colors you need, KNOW how to mix them, and KNOW where to put them.

Most of creating a successful painting comes from being a good painter in general, the medium isn't that much of a big deal beyond its limitations.

NOW GO PAINT WHAT YOU SEE, GET OFF THIS SHIT SITE AND ACTUALLY PUT IN THE WORK. A strangers advice on the internet wont make you "git gud". Putting in the work and learning organically like a human with a brain is the most effective way to improve as a painter.

You don't deserve this post.
