I have been KIM 27-April-2004 - 18:32:19 Starting with black and white first to learn value and composition really works. Sometimes we just want to be master painters right from the get go. But if we are patient and try this technique we can go farther faster. Vicki 18-July-2004 - 20:40:59 You told me everything I needed to know about getting started with acrylics.

Mate 04-February-2006 - 14:57:32 Cool start! Shayla 06-June-2006 - 17:40:22 THIS IS AN EXCELLENT SITE ON LEARNING TO PAINT WITH ACRYLICS! I do have a HANDY HINT: Don't just read the Home page, although it carefully outlines the materials you will need. DO ALSO click on the link in the Home Page text (toward the bottom third of the Home page) that will get you to the wonderful 16 mini-lessons (with great color illustrations)! It is a treat to read through these lessons, or "plays" as the artist Harlan Simantel calls them, to learn how much experience can be gained by doing less intimidating smaller, simpler paintings in the beginning. I printed out every page of these lessons in color as well as the Home page for future reference! It's well worth the trouble. And, don't forget to print out the .pdf file pages of mini frames that H. Simantel offers for your practice in doing thumbnail sketches (Look for the explanation and link to those thumbnail pages in the lesson #9 text.). ENJOY! sky 19-March-2008 - 06:20:10 Thank you ! Please paint more religious pictures. The two you have here are simply awesome. Blackbird 21-September-10 - 22:54:28 I can't seem to find this painting course as the links appear to be dead. Can anyone help? |
