How to Paint a Mural

Hello aspiring muralists! Here's an online crash course on mural painting so you can kickstart your mural painting journey at home, in your bedroom, in your backyard, or wherever! The techniques I'll be teaching are based on years and years of mural painting experience but I will run through lessons on different surfaces, paints, and other information that I find useful for anyone who is interested to start painting murals. 

TOPICS COVERED:
1. Types of surfaces
2. Tools needed and how to care for your brushes
3. Types of paints
4. Mixing colors
5. Scaling techniques
5. Brush control
6. Blending Techniques and Layering
7. Painting your mural and color blocking technique

Disclaimer: Please note that the paints used in most of the videos are acrylic latex (waterbased, industrial grade). The videos for cleaning brushes by using water only apply to this type of paint.

This class is ideal for beginners.
