What You’ll Learn:

Module 1 – Acrylic Painting

We’ll begin with acrylics – an accessible and very versatile medium. You’ll learn to control color, work with brushes of various shapes, create balanced compositions, and add texture. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll complete a finished painting on canvas based on a theme that inspires you most.
This is an excellent introduction to painting, with visible progress from the very first sessions.

Module 2 – Watercolor and Ink

Next, we’ll move on to a delicate and expressive medium. You’ll discover how transparency works, how to create atmosphere and light using thin layers of color. We’ll also explore ink techniques, focusing on contrast and detail.
This module will train your patience, attention, and ability to suggest more with less. You’ll create works on various themes: landscapes, still life, and portraits.

Module 3 – Oil Painting

In the final part of the course, you’ll work with oils – a classic and profound technique. You’ll learn how to balance your use of color, work in layers, and create smooth transitions between shades. We’ll also discuss materials, drying times, and tool care.
At the end of this module, you’ll complete a personal painting that applies everything you’ve learned and reflects your unique style.
