ANNOUNCING . . .
I am busily creating an online painting course
for beginning acrylic painters.
I hope to have it up and ready by August 1st.
Painting With Acrylics 101.com
will teach you:
How to mix and use color
What brushes to buy and how to use them
What paints to purchase
How to lay out your palette
Composition
Perspective
and lots of other goodies,
and will include step by step instructions
for these two paintings.
OK, these two roosters count as one painting,
but you can paint it anyway you want.
I have taught this in my gallery before,
and I chose it for this online course because of the barnwood
in the background, the straw, and of course the rooster.
There's lots to learn in this one, but it's not so difficult a beginner can't have success.
This is the second painting and I've never taught it before and it won't be taught anywhere else but this course.
This will be somewhat challenging,
but is definitely doable.
You have the benefit in an online course to stop as often as you need to and watch a video again and again.
I also will have lots of cheat sheets and check lists as well as a shopping list of supplies and places to get things online or brick and mortar stores.
The price for this course is practically insane at $129
and will only be that low the first 60 days it is available.
After that a considerable price increase is planned.
Hopefully, you're signed up to receive my blog
as that is the first place I announce anything.
Look for the official launch sometime around the first of August.
I'm having a ball creating it
and it is one of the most challenging things I've ever done.
But, it's coming along and so far,
I'm pretty proud of it.
If you've always wanted to learn how to paint,
this course is for you,
or it may be just the thing for someone you know.
Please feel free to share this information.

This is wonderful Sharon!! Huge amount of work but it will be so helpful for beginners...wish something like this had been around when I first started! Good luck:)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Karen. I think it will be a great thing for beginner painters. I so appreciate your comment. Sorry I'm very late in responding. Creating, gallery and health issues have been pressing.
DeleteI think you are offering a valuable opportunity to artists who have no instruction easily available. Good for you, Sharon.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Julie. I had hoped to make it by August 1 but I'm going to miss that deadline but maybe later in August.
