Welcome to "Acrylic Abstract Painting - Little Treasures". In this course you'll be learning how to create little abstract paintings on 6x6 inch panels. There will be a video lecture demonstrating an easy way to build your own art panels, or you can purchase some from your art supply store.
If you prefer you can work on canvas.
In this demo I'll be showing you how you can build your own art panels and save a lot of money.
First step to making the "Fiesta" Painting. You'll be building up layers using collage. So grab your magazine pages and pva glue (or gloss medium) and get ready to have some Fun!
Finishing up "Fiesta", using some negative painting.
This is the first step in the creation of a little abstract painting called "Little Omni". You'll be laying down some colors, establishing values on the underpainting.
Now you will cover the underpainting with a thin wash of gesso. Knocking all those elements back on the picture plane.
Then after it's dry adding your black lines that will become outlines for the shapes you fill in later.
You will be filling in the shapes you made with colors.
Now you will bring it all together and finish up "Little Omni".
In this demo you'll learn how to use your intuition to create a gorgeous little treasure "Waves Of Joy".
In this course you'll be learning three different ways you can create gorgeous little acrylic abstract paintings, on 6x6 inch wooden panels.
These panels can be purchased from your art supply store or you can build them yourself, and I include a video showing you how. Building your own can save you a lot of money if you decide to start painting on panels like these regularly.
Of course you can also use small canvases if you prefer. Either one is fine.
Acrylic Abstract Painting on small supports like these can be a lot of fun, and habit forming. They don't cost very much to make so it's easy to just want to keep creating more and more. You may decide you want to do a series of these Little Treasures in one of the styles you'll learn in the course, or perhaps a different style altogether.
I promise you this... You're Going To Have A Lot of Fun! creating these, and hopefully pick up some helpful tips as well.
The supplies you'll need include;
I listed this as an intermediate course because I think you do need a basic familiarity with acrylic paints and brush control, but these aren't difficult techniques to master, so even if you're a newbie you can probably handle this course.
As always this course comes with;
I hope you decide to enroll, and I look forward to seeing the paintings that you create.
