Painting techniques

by Lucia

 

Painting techniques are, we believe, an integral part of the drawing experience. This is the reason why we decided to implement this section on website.

 

There is nothing like being able to paint or color using different techniques your drawing once it's finished.

 

And there are so many different coloring and painting techniques to choose from.

Acrylics, watercolors, oils, pastels, crayons and so on, the list could continue. Any of these techniques has it's own strengths and all of them or a combination of them can be used to achieve great results.

 

In this section Lucia will be talking about them. In her tutorials she'll give advices and suggestions to start painting and start experimenting with different ways of coloring and painting your drawings!
