Floral Still Life Acrylic Painting for Beginners

(Scroll down ↓ to Add to Cart) Inspiration for a painting often strikes when walking around your garden. Inspiration often ends when the mass of leaves and flowers you’ve picked are now strewn across your kitchen table, trying to pass themselves off as a still-life! When you put paint to canvas, the whole thing looks unrealistic and a little dated. Is it the leaves? Is it the vase? Is the composition wrong? Why don’t the petals appear translucent? Trying to transfer that feeling of simplicity and light into a studio still life can become very frustrating. Greens that appeared bright outside suddenly become more muted inside, and if you try to paint them as brightly as you observed in the garden, they can appear fake.

Modern Simplicity, Classical Form

I’ve developed this painting course to show you how the arrangement of colours, composition and tonal value range result in a more contemporary painting that will still allow you to see good form.

We’ll be taking classical painting techniques to build up an in-direct floral painting in acrylics.

Once you’ve discovered the importance of accurate drawing, layout and establishing good tonal values – you’ll move on to using colour strings.

This method will develop your knowledge of pigments and allow you to create the perfect balance between warm and cool. It then means when you’re standing at the easel you can feel confident with your colours throughout every stage of the painting.

Working through these simple step-by-step tutorials, you’ll learn how to tune your eyes between subtle shifts of greys, creams and whites, mix a subtle modern colour palette, whilst still learning classical painting techniques.

In just a few hours you can create your own floral masterpiece!
