Painting class
My second art class was painting. What fun!
First she went over all the materials: oil paint, acrylics, watercolors, brushes, canvas.
Then she talked about the basic shape and features of the human face and the color wheel.
Then she handed out prepared 11x14 canvases, mirrors, brushes. She started us with dollops of 2 blue acrylic paints and then guided us to create a self-portrait. She took up through the build-up of colors step by step. In an hour we each had a very nice self-portrait. I had no idea it could be this easy. I love acrylic paints!
