Painting

Acrylic Painting in the One Stroke Style

Acrylic paint is great to work with. It’s water-based, opaque, and easy to use. I love the bold colors that I can get, which are hard for me to achieve with watercolor. I have some strong colors here, which I combined with another painting to make the pattern you can see a few photos down. If you don’t care for the shine that comes with acrylic, then gouache may be for you. SHORT VIDEO HERE

MY ETSY SHOP

This is an off-shoot of the one stroke method of combining multiple paint colors on your brush a once. It gives instant shading and depth!
