PAINT MEDUIMS EXPLAINED
|
ACRYLICS is the easiest and most exciting painting medium to use. We use the PROFESSIONAL acrylics. The difference is our acrylics do NOT dry quickly but stay wet all day, have 100% lightfast pigment and 100%binder. (ALL WILL BE EXPLAINED!) Students have said what a difference it is using our acrylics!
OILS are fun but more of a "process" to learn - slow to dry but very exciting when you have learnt how to blend and use them properly.
WATERCOLOUR is a slow, controlled process of painting - you are aiming for a wonderful "translucency" of paint. You need to learn some drawing as a good watercolour is based on a good drawing. |
MYTHS AND LEGENDS!!!!
|
ACRYLICS is NOT the "poor man's" equivalent to oils. It is accepted as being equal to oils, now the paint is so excellent.
DRAWING To be a good artist you need to draw and draw and draw!! NOT TRUE. To be a good artist you need to know how to find "inspiration" how to "interpret" how to THINK like an artist, how to find your "mission" and LEARN TO HAVE VISION!!
COPYING IS BAD! Depends what you mean by copying. You start to learn from copying - if you copy good masters. You can learn colour balance, composition and tonal values from good and famous painters.
PAINTING IS THE SAME AS BEING A PAINTER Not true - a painter has vision, ideas and a mission. Your job as a "painter" is to give the public a new way of seeing. Just painting everything and anything is NOT the same!!
As a "PAINTER" You have to develop ideas and a personal identity. WE SHOW YOU HOW!! |
