Learn about the benefits of using mediums and gels to extend the paint for both transparent and opaque colors, thin or thick paint and how to change the sheen of your paint, gloss, semi-gloss or matte. Experiment with various paint viscosity from watercolor-like washes, to acrylic ink-like stains, subtle transparent glazes, to thick, luscious impasto applications.
Learn which products work best for Mixed Media; both for gluing & embedding elements into your art.
Explore how to slow the drying time for delicate glazes, large painted areas or detailed blending. Understanding the unique characteristics of the various products is the key that unlocks & blasts open the door of possibilities.
