Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

In this class I will be demonstrating some tips and tricks to painting in a more expressive and painterly manner. After going through some key tips and tricks I will demonstrate how to implement them in a full painting demonstration. The demonstration is in acrylic on paper however you could also use canvas. Painting in this expressive way does take practice and a lot of confidence so don't be discouraged if you find it hard or messy to begin with. Keep working at it and practising. 

This class is suitable for anyone that would like to create more expressive and loose artworks in any medium, although I am demonstrating in acrylic, these techniques can be used for oil, ink, watercolour and gouache.
