via Skillshare

Overview

In this course we will be creating 5 colorful, large modern abstract paintings. I will show you step by step how to add texture, line and form to a canvas and give you the confidence to paint loose and carefree without the worry of making mistakes. I share my secret abstract art techniques that took me over 20 years to perfect.

I will cover the usage of unconventional tools and materials to add interest and excitement to your masterpiece.

Without spending a fortune on art supplies, you will see the paints and
brushes that I like to use and the different mediums to add texture and
depth on a budget.

You will grasp every brushstroke and every splatter. Even though I work fast, you can take your time, pause and rewind as often as you 'd like and watch the course over and over again. This is not your average, boring art lesson.  Get ready to be amazed at your ability to create your own art masterpiece.
