This is the most informative site I have ever seen. Even my art books at home didn't go into depth this much!

I found the site very informative for any beginner. It really gives all the necessary basics to get started.

Excellent -- very informative especially for a neophyte in this area. One problem - which may be due to my computer- when downloading 'printer version' the last 1/4" to 3/8" on the right side was lost, i.e., it was not picked up by the printer. Perhaps the right side margin could be made wider??

super helpful. Thanks for sharing your techniques and advice for a naive, cuious newcomer.

It has a lot of great information for beginners!(:

This website is very good. I came online looking for steps and tips in painting put in layman terms and the creater did a fantastic job of doing just that. They gave me great tips to use and gave me additional information that I was not looking for at first. I just want to thank the creater of this site for doing such a great job.

I found this site extremely helpful since I tend to forget instructions and this was a really good revue for me plus i even learned some new information on painting outdoors. I am so glad there are helpful people like you in this world, thank you for sharing.

I'm re-entering the world of painting after just hit-and-miss episodes over the last 30 years. I used to work entirely with oils and occasionally with watercolors. Now I'm ready to roll with acrylics and confidence!

Great article giving the basics of acrylic painting. Very encouraging, giving lots of ideas and tips, and very easy to read. Excellent resource for beginners, and the section on techniques of painting is excellent even for slightly more experienced painters.

Having painted in watercolour for many years and achieved a good standard - I think, I want to try my hand at Acrylics. Realising that technique is all important, I've been surfing all morning,and this is definitely one of the best sites I've come across. THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED.

I loved this sight. I am so lucky I found it before I pulled out my canvas. It was extremely helpfull. I'm new at this and I learned so much!

Thanks for all the wonderful information. You're a true inspiration!



LV Daniels   13-July-2005 - 17:12:15
Thanks for the informative-but-not-too-long outline of acrylic painting. It's just what I needed to get started, and the graphics you used illustrated your points very well. The *only* thing missing was info on the specific mediums themselves (gesso, retarder, GAC 100 etc) but that won't be too hard to look up. Great job and thanks again for spelling everything out for a beginner.



daren   16-August-2005 - 17:42:01
a superb site lots of info and a place to show off your stuff



Rachel   20-August-2005 - 12:08:26

kmcdonald   13-March-2006 - 09:54:17
Very good site. The information was straight forword and useful.



Shell   16-May-2006 - 08:24:37
I would like to thank you for your outstanding website. I myself have never had any teaching on how to paint but, I have always had a love and/or obession for. I can not explain it. Thank you again for your very informative website. I am sure I will read it over and over again *Smile*
