Acrylic Painting
How does one get started with the basics of acrylic painting?
Acrylic Painting
Hello Zoha,
Acrylic painting is a great starting spot for beginners, it requires relatively few things and dries faster, which can be both a Bane and a boon.
To begin with, you do not need much. Start with a student-grade set of acrylic paints (six colours would do fine) and get yourself three brushes, a small, a medium, and a large. Now all you need is paper and some water.
Try picking a good quality paper, but you need not burn a hole in your pocket, for a beginner, it’s completely fine to buy a sketchbook and fill the pages with whatever you want to paint.
I would suggest you begin by making something you like, whether it’s flowers, the sky, pets, people, or anything. The basic idea is just to begin!
If acrylic painting strikes your fancy, then we can start getting serious with our practice.
Happy painting!
