Paint It Simply is more than a painting style. It is built on hundreds of years of techniques passed on from artist to artist. Since we created this simple approach to painting and color theory almost 10 years ago, our techniques and looks have expanded dramatically. Landscapes, Florals, Rosemaling, Wildlife and so much more can be created with these wonderful and simple techniques.
This class will take a beginner or intermediate painter through those acrylic techniques and show them how to paint beautiful florals simply. Most of these techniques and certainly the approach will be new to all artists. Building on the qualit ies of the Heritage MultiMedia Acrylics David has created new techniques such as “Value Shear”, “1/2 Tone Shear” and used those with other techniques of “Negative Painting”, “Optics” and so much more to create new pure acrylic looks for floral artists.

Student Comment About Our Classes
Then, let me say that this is by far the best class for the money I have
ever taken. The amount of information is staggering. I am having such
a good time. Aside from the money, it is also the best class I’ve ever
taken from an excellent teaching point of view. All teachers talk the
whole time they’re working, I understand the process. Not all teachers
fill the time with information and actual teaching. David, you are an
exceptional teacher. you’ve also provided a huge amount of extra
material. Thanks.
