Still Life Masterclass Course

Discover how classical oil techniques can revolutionize your acrylics

This course tackles the tricky subject of painting reflections in Silver, Ceramic, Mahogany and Glass.

Sometimes all your painting needs is a few subtle touches to transform it. Taking a limited palette, you’ll learn how less is more when trying to create the illusion of metal with acrylics.

Building up the painting from the darks to the lightest sparkling reflections, you’ll see how the real skill is looking for the ‘abstract’ within the object to be able to paint it realistically.

The bonus lessons look at ways of achieving lifelike glass with acrylics yet still having a painterly feel. This indirect method of painting allows you to follow the ‘course’ chronologically to accomplish a new level of painting.

“No art is less spontaneous than mine. What I do is the result of reflection and the study of the great masters.”

Edgar Degas, Artist
