Inhaltsangabe

The essential reference for the practising artist.

Acrylic is used by many well-known professional artists, but is rather less popular with amateurs. This is surprising, because acrylic is not only the most versatile of all the painting media, but is also highly forgiving. You can paint out mistakes as you work, even making major changes to the colour scheme and composition, so that each new painting can become a springboard for ideas. And the range of different effects you can achieve is vast - if you try out some of the exciting techniques and projects in this book you may find yourself falling in love with the medium.

- Learn to use and enjoy this wondergul but under-rated painting medium.

- Contains complete information on materials and techniques, with full-colour photographs and step-by-step demonstrations.

- Over 100 visual sequences give advice on how to paint tricky subjects, from skies and water to faces and figures.

- Includes advise on presenting your finished paintings and getting your work seen and exhibited.
