This video will show you how to get started with acrylic paint, and will cover preparing and toning a panel or canvas, transferring images, paint application, and monochromatic value scales.
Stay tuned for the next installment, which will cover realistic painting with acrylic.

I am using the following materials in the video:
- masonite panel
- Art Materials gesso
- Golden acrylic
- Sax Drying Retarder
