This course will give you a greater understanding of how to use colour to create interesting and evocative paintings with acrylic paint.
Acrylic paint is a versatile medium and is also great fun to work with. It is fast drying and water based, making it accessible to all. With a huge range of colours, it is easy to mix your own and introduce a range of texture and techniques into your work.
Under Denise’s expert guidance you will:
Learn how to mix, choose and apply colour to a painting
Feel more confident using acrylic paint, gels and mediums
Create several small painting studies and one larger painting
This course runs over three consecutive Saturday mornings.
