Discover:

• A collection of exercises, projects and artist tips: the book contains 8 fun, hands-on projects, with lots of exciting ‘wow!’ moments throughout.
• An exploration of versatile acrylics: from soft body and heavy body paints to fluid acrylics and inks, acrylic paint is available in many different sorts, each with its own unique character, consistency and techniques. Some flow effortlessly into fine lines and washes, while others hold thick, impasto texture that can be built, scraped and shaped. You’ll get to know how each one behaves, and how they can be used on their own or combined for more dynamic, exciting results.
• A wide range of mixed media and creative techniques: incorporate additional media into your acrylic work, with pens, texture paste, collage, mirror foil and gold leaf, and try out printing, painting with feathers, using a palette knife, spattering and sponging to create some truly exciting results.
• A behind-the-scenes peek into a paint factory: discover how acrylic paints are made at the factory of world-renowned art company, Daler-Rowney.
• A collection of Jenny’s inspiring finished works: discover how to incorporate Jenny’s techniques and ideas into your own creative work.

This exciting and experimental book is perfect for those looking to bring a little more joy, color and playfulness into their acrylic painting.
