Thank you for taking a look at my Painting with Acrylic Kindle Book! I would really like to get a review from you letting me know what you think of my book!When I first started learning to paint with acrylics, I wanted to know everything about it. What is it made of? How is it different from oil paint, or watercolors? Is it easier to use than other paint? If I'm supposed to use linseed oil with oil paint, then what do I use with acrylic? I had already been painting with oil paints, simply because I loved the three-D effect I could achieve. But I really didn't like the cleanup because it took so long, and I couldn't use soap and water. This is another reason I got into acrylic paint. I could use the acrylic paint as a wash like watercolor. I could also use it straight out of the tube and make a three-D effect similar to oil paint, or I could add water and use it as acrylic paint. It is just so versatile. I understand totally about wanting to know as much as possible about the materials, regardless of whether it is the paint, the canvas or any of the materials, I feel the same way. All these questions and more will be answered within this book. Like you, the reader, I too wanted to know the answer to these questions. I was eager to learn all there was to know about this medium. I found an array of answers to each question, and I learned by experimenting as well as reading books about painting with acrylic paint.Here are the Chapter included in this Book:- What Colors to Use-What Brushes to Use-What to Paint On-How to Use Acrylic Paint-Mixing Your Paint-Clean Up-Preserving Your WorkIncluded in this book, are a couple of examples of how I used acrylic paint and the results of my experiments. There are also a few basic ideas to get you started. I have also included a very basic chapter to help you get started with painting on fabric, such as a T-shirt. The examples and ideas are at the end of the Book, before the final words section.Hopefully, this book is enough to get you started on a lifelong journey to acrylic painting. I've assumed nothing, except that you want to learn how to paint with acrylic paint. I have covered a variety of subjects from what acrylic paint is to preserving your painting. I've also explained how to mix your colors which include an explanation of hue, saturation, and value, as well as tonal values and intensity of your colors.I have also included a chapter on cleanup. Cleanup is easy, just use soap and water. It's really a snap when you are painting with acrylic paint. Just remember to thoroughly clean your brushes, sponges or other paint tools because otherwise, you risk having them to dry stiff and be useless. You will most likely end up having to replace them. I also included a chapter on painting on T-shirts, which should apply to any other type of fabric. The important things are to have fun as you learn, and to take your time. Painting with acrylics can be fun and even lucrative. It is a fascinating medium. If you use it straight out of the tube without any medium added, it tends to be more like oil paints. If you make your paints a little thinner, it can be like a watercolor wash. To use acrylics like acrylics, just remember the thirty percent water to seventy percent paint. Most of all, experiment, practice and have fun!
