This is a beginning acrylic painting tutorial. We will be blending colors, layering, and using a dark background to make our flower stand out. You will need acrylic paint; red, yellow, blue, black and white, a medium brush (or a fine tip and a medium bright or flat), a canvas, board or paper, prepared with white acrylic paint, some water, a plate or palette, and a rag or paper towel. Here are some links I mention in the video, enjoy!

im sorry to asked this question but im really confused. I need to use a glossy varnish to finish my canvas. Are wood varnish, car and varnish for acrylic or canvas are all the same? Ive been a lot of a different stores and they dont know what im talking about. Hope you could help. It will mean a bunch. Thankyou! :( anyone?

Good video, but make sure that the palette does not block the brush while you are painting.

Just a basic question : why do artists keep the pallets so messy? Why don't they clean up after each time? Seems like sometimes the colors might get mixed up in there.
