About This Class

Do you want paint but not exactly sure where to start? This is the class for you!

I created this class after I realized a lot of people who were interested in my first painting class (Acrylic Painting: How to Paint an Abstract Landscape) needed a little more instruction when it came to painting. I am SO excited for this class. It was really fun to get back to the basics!

In this class, I am going to teach you everything you need to know about Acrylic Painting in order to get started. Acrylic is such a great medium because it is very easy to learn and use.

I cover A LOT of information in this class but I have it broken down into 6 categories:

  • Your Workspace - I will show you my workspace and what tools I use to make it the perfect place to paint. Spoiler Alert: you do not need a fancy studio to paint, the kitchen table works great!
  • Color Mixing - I teach you how to mix colors and get a beautiful range of colors using the 3 primaries plus white and black. 
  • Brushes - I show you all of my favorite brushes and the different marks they make, as well as, Palette/Painting Knives! 
  • Texture (Acrylic Mediums) - I teach you how to use Acrylic Mediums to build really nice texture in your paintings and also how to create the desired finish on your piece. 
  • Dimension - I teach you how to create dimension when painting an object to avoid it looking flat.
  • Depth Of Field - I teach you have to achieve depth of field when painting a landscape by using scale and color. 
  • And much more!

    At the end of this class, you will have all of the skills you need to begin painting! My first painting class, Acrylic Painting: How to Paint an Abstract Landscape, is the perfect follow up to this class! It is very easy and a great way to practice what you learned!
