Acrylic Painting Techniques for Beginners

This beginners Acrylic painting class is perfect for beginners.  Taught by Jackie Norman, it is a perfect start to a fun, relaxing evening .

Question 1

Do you already have the materials I requested?  Also are you a complete beginner or have you done some painting before?

Jackie Norman is a visual artist who has been painting now for over 50 years in various types of materials.  She has had a background in graphics, having studied and gaining an OND and HND in graphic design in the 1980's.  She also has had a somewhat commercial background and have been in education for the last 18-20 years.  Fairly outgoing, she enjoys a challenge and therefore welcomes you to her home online class.  Her aim is to try to do live in person classes but, unfortunately due to not being a driver, it has to be somewhere close to her home so she could cab it + her materials.  She likes acrylics because of the fast drying qualities of the medium but she has used oils, watercolours, pen/ink, encaustic art and mixed media.  This class is purely experimental and you are encouraged to have fun with acrylic colour mixing, using the materials and textures.  This is her first online class to teach so needs encouragement and reviews.
