14 Distinctive Approaches to Acrylic Painting with More Than
100 Creative Ideas
This book will inspire serious students to expand their repertory of techniques and explore fourteen entirely different approaches to acrylic painting that were pioneered by world famous artists. Students will find step-by-step instructions for each approach. Next they are encouraged to progress beyond simply copying the styles of others by adapting elements from different approaches to create a language that is distinctively their own. Illustrations of representative paintings include original works by distinguished artists as different from each other as the French proponent of "raw art" Jean Dubuffet, the American abstract expressionist Morris Louis, and the English Pop artist David Hockney. Well-known works by these and other artists are analyzed and explained in a way that will encourage students to develop exciting and original new modes of personal expression.
