#acrylic tutorial

I made a simple lil painting which I wanted to make in one colour tone and I thought I’d share the process with you :)

On the first pic I basically have shaded out the highlights in white paint. I explained in my previous post how I kinda do it, by deluting the paint in water kinda like you work watercolours. Depending on the paint quality you’re using, you can end up reactivating the paint. Lucky I haven’t had any of that happening with the ones I use, which is Amsterdam Royal Talens and in the pic Arteza.

Then I used a semi translucent colour and I thin that out with water as well; not that much water is needed in this process since the paint isn’t opaque. In the third pic you can see how I worked the sky, and I just went over the area with the paint and water to the area.

And I’m following the same process like before.

And here is the final result. What I did was I kept layering the paint, using less water and mostly paint on the areas I wanted saturated.

Hope you guys enjoyed this lil process. This is the way I work with acrylics and no way anything that I’m claiming to be the right way. Just the way I work with it a lot, and I thought I’d share :)
