Acrylic Painting with Georgia Youngs
About This Experience
Join Georgia Youngs in this educational and inspiring demo as she walks you through the basics and often overlooked steps of creating a successful painting. Learn how colour theory can round out edges, create interesting shadows or highlights, and support perspective. She will also discuss drawing, composition and how to problem-solve situations, such as over-blending, so you no longer end up with unintended greys, browns, or the same tonal values.
