Information
In this session we will learn how to paint a landscape with acrylic paints, starting with a pencil sketch and then adding colour layers to it. We will learn how to mix paints and use colour perspective for distance and proximity to show far away mountains, close by water surfaces, groups of trees and houses (and their reflections in the water) and grasses in the foreground.
