This class teaches the elements of art and the principals of design. Students will explore basic art media and techniques. In this course, I teach you the foundations of working with acrylic paint and why they are the simplest and most effective way for an absolute beginner to learn how to paint successfully. Acrylics can be used in thin layers like watercolors or in thicker, more opaque applications like oil paint. The course covers setup and materials, color mixing and pigment choice, brush-handling, and palette-knife techniques, as well as gels and mediums. You’ll complete a still-life, landscape, seascape Subject and reference are your choice.
