Description
I Love Acrylic Paint! And so will your canvas, your brushes and all those brilliant pictures in your head.
Turn mere drips and blobs into the visions on canvas you’ve been wanting to create. From your very first brushstroke to your ultimate masterpiece – this course has it all!
Easily master acrylic painting with the right skills. How? By getting the right information. I’m Nancy Reyner, one of the nation’s foremost acrylic experts, and international best-selling author of acrylic painting books. Hopefully, I’m not sounding like an egotist here, but this is important stuff! Your time and money is valuable so I want you to know this course is worth it!
I’m a professional artist, and I love to teach as much as I love to paint. Also, I care. At least that’s what I’ve been told by the thousands of artists I’ve taught over the past 30 years. Unlike most professional painters, I am more than willing to share my hard-earned lessons with other artists – in full glorious easy to understand instruction along with DETAILS! – and lots of them. (Don’t like details? No problem, just fast forward past all the advice on what to buy to save money, which products and paint colours will get you everywhere, and other cool tips I share and instead head to the juicy painting demonstrations).
With this course, you get TONS OF GREAT STUFF. The Ultimate Acrylic Painting Course includes 30 videos, over 11 hours of video instruction and 4 fully illustrated pdf books, (those best sellers I just mentioned) with hundreds of fun and exciting acrylic painting ideas and techniques. Also included are special tips (can I say Secret Tips?) on how to create successful paintings. Achieve a wide range of painting techniques in both Classic and Contemporary styles. Gain the confidence to create any painting effect, style and image you desire!
Warning: Course side effects may include creative joy and a painting addiction!
This course has a special feature. It never gets old! Once you finish the course it doubles as a professional reference guide. In the middle of that brushstroke, you may wonder “what were those steps she did?” No problem. Quickly access any acrylic technique whenever needed using the course’s handy contents guide.
Oh, and did I mention? In addition to 30 years as a professional painter, I am fully trained as a Certified Working Artist for Golden Artist Colors. And they make the best darn acrylic paint!! Full disclosure I don’t get any kickbacks from Golden now that I’m a free agent. But I still love their paints and products.
