This basic instructional guide demonstrates a range of techniques and applies them to such major forms as still life, portraits, figures and landscapes. The author discusses materials and presents exercises for gaining familiarity with the medium and learning brushstrokes and textures. Taking an unusual approach, the author explains how to put the quick-drying opacity of acrylics to practical use, showing how the beginner can rearrange compositional elements, add or eliminate details, change a figure's clothing or gestures, and alter a painting in other ways. The text offers valuable compositional lessons that can also be applied to other art media.
