Acrylics Made Fun!

I have every one of Brenda's instruction books and I've enjoyed each and every one. It is my opinion that this is her finest book to date. I have been a painting teacher for over twenty-five years and I have found her books to be a great way to help those students wanting to learn about acrylics. While acrylic painting can be intimidating to some, I have found that Brenda's techniques using Clear Blend, White Blend and Slow Blend not only give the painter the 'extra' time they would like but it also makes it all nearly 'goof proof'. The step-by-step paint along lessons take you through the learning process in an easy to follow manner. I would suggest this or any of her past books if you are interested in learning a new painting method. Also, Brenda even encourages the begining student to go ahead and use the bottle acrylics if they don't want to buy all new supplies for a painting medium they may or may not enjoy. Once you find that you too enjoy using acrylics you can then move toward a product with a heavier pigment. This North Light Book publication has 112 pages with over 163 colored photos to help you along the way plus 10 pages of patterns.
