What you will learn:

Module 1 – Acrylic Painting

We begin with acrylics – an accessible and highly versatile medium. You will learn how to control color, work with brushes of different shapes, create balanced compositions, and add texture. Through practical exercises, you will complete a full painting on canvas, choosing the theme that inspires you most. This is an excellent introduction to painting, with visible results from the very first sessions.

Module 2 – Watercolor and Ink

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

Module 3 – Oil Painting

In the final part of the course, you will work with oils, a classic and profound technique. You will learn how to dose color, work in layers, and create smooth transitions between tones. We will discuss materials, drying time, and tool care. At the end of this module, you will create a personal painting in which you apply everything you have learned and explore your own style.
