ACRYLIC PAINTING 101: Lesson 2

All about reading our Paint Tubes this week!

This is a very short lesson.  I discovered over the years that knowing what information is on your paint tubes helps to save money!  It helps to know if the paint  is made with one pigment or multiple pigments.  When mixing paint the more pigments the more complex it is.  I try to keep to working with single pigment paint colours, tho there are some exceptions.  The one exception is Alizarin Crimson Permanent Hue.  I did a test on the various options and chose to use the brand Liquitex for this pigment.   

Subscribe on Youtube to keep up to date with the latest of my Acrylic Painting 101 class.  There are a number of videos to come yet.  It is a fairly comprehensive course. ​
