• why are my paint lines so splotchy!?
• How can I make texture with acrylic?
• What techniques can I do with acrylics?
• Who am I kidding!? I’m not an artist! No wonder my painting looks like crap! I’m a failure.

...this is the class for you.

In fact, it’s one of the best and most versatile mediums to use for many types of projects. It is both forgiving and dynamic - as long as you know the right tools to use.

• No years of experience…
• No artistic talent required…
• No major investment in art supplies (in fact, I was working on a tight budget while learning!)...
• No need for dozens of paints or brushes…
• And No over-complicated process or boring theory….

Introducing...

The Magic of Acrylics: Acrylic Painting Basics for Beginners

Each lesson within this class is broken down into key steps, building from each other to give you a final gorgeous painting at the very end. 

In this class, 

• I will show you the supplies you’ll need to complete any acrylic painting (including my favorite art supplies I personally love using for all my paintings) - as well as a keen eye to expertly choose the art supplies that are custom tailored to your needs. 
• You’ll learn specific techniques that’ll get you tickling your canvas faster like how to create gorgeous 3-D textures with paint using very simple tools and proper mixing practices.
• You’ll learn how to make color your best friend by learning how to mix any color in the rainbow, and how to create amazing depth that practically sucks the viewer into the scene.
• Most importantly, you’ll learn the key mindset tricks to keep you motivated and wanting to slap some paint around your canvas, and not collect dust deep in the closet.
• And did I mention you’ll leave with a completed painting at the very end? This class gives you the hands-on, kick-in-the-pants you need to paint with acrylics and love the process.

We’re going to cover a lot of information, but by the end of this class you’ll have the know-how and most importantly the confidence to create gorgeously colorful acrylic paintings.
