Course Description

Overview

Description Explore traditional and imagined landscape paintings as you learn foundational acrylic techniques from award-winning illustrator Greg Houston. Discover how to use color and artistic devices to convey mood, and create an underpainting that sets the stage for your landscape composition. Define ground, sky, and shadows and build layers of warm and cool hues with expressive energy. Once you’ve mastered the classic landscape motif, play with color palette, texture, and style to create a surreal scene inspired by your unique artistic vision. Enhance your painting with layering, glazing, and ethereal effects and create an imagined landscape that shows off your creative style.
