Serendipity Painting
£4.50
Are you always nervous about getting started in a new sketchbook? Do the pristine pages scare you? Let me reassure you that you’re not alone! In this collection of three videos you’ll learn how to lose the blank, white page quickly and easily. Laura shows how she gets lots of glorious colour on her pages using water based paints, drawing inks and soluble pastels. She demonstrates step by step how she produces fascinating background effects for her sketchbook and art journaling work and how she constantly evaluates and responds to what she’s created on the page.
Description
This workshop has three videos.
Art Journaling Backgrounds – Part One
In the first video Linda shows step by step how she paints a beautiful landscape using acrylic paints and inks. She explains the differences between opaque and transparent colours and demonstrates how she uses their particular characteristics in combination.
