For your project you will create a useful and perhaps beautiful sketchbook full of color combinations and notes on techniques that you can refer to and add to over the years. By the end of the lessons, you'll feel confident to prepare paint surfaces of your choice, know which type of acrylic appeals to you most and will have had fun creating your project your own paint recipe book!

How pretty you make you recipe book is entirely up to you. By the end of the class you will have a really useful, inspiring book to refer to before you paint in the future. I want you to explore with this course - not worry about creating something that is portfolio worthy. Think of this as a working document. The most important thing is to have a pencil handy to write down exactly what colours and techniques you used.

The first 25 people to upload their projects will be sent a downloadable print of this artwork I made ( contact me at gabs@gabriellabuckingham.com or privately on instagram @gabriellabuckingham

It's A4 size with a white border included in that.

Music used during lesson 3 is by Ben Sound.

Note to those who love watercolour : Throughout my career I've used mainly water and heavy body acrylic - sometimes in a watercolour fashion. These days if you want to paint ONLY in a watercolour style you will be better off using High Flow acrylics as the pigments remain vibrant diluted. That's the whole point of the new formulations! Or possibly Fluid acrylics if you want more opacity.
