If you are a beginner who wants learn how to paint with acrylics or if you want to pick up a paintbrush again, this course will have you painting in no time!
This collection of acrylic painting projects is designed to teach you the key skills of acrylic painting as you practice.
Each painting is 1-2 hours and focuses on a different technique or skill including:
Project 1: How to mix color, tints and shades
Project 2: How to blend two colors together in a smooth gradient
Project 3: How to use textured brush strokes to create pattern and energy in your painting
Project 4: How to paint 3D objects
Project 5: Focus on form with monochromatic painting (one colour)
Each project begins with some simple color mixing and testing before completing a small painting. You'll produce five finished paintings! As we paint together I'll show you what to do at each stage and give you acrylic painting tips along the way.
The aim of this series is to give you something to paint that you can learn from as you go. If you prefer a more traditional route, heavy on color theory and traditional processes then this isn't the course for you. If you want practical painting guidance that is accessible, easy to follow (and fun!) then you're in the right place!
