ACRYLIC PAINTING 101: Lesson 3 Transparency & Opacity

In Lesson 3 we start to play with our paint, which is always the fun part!  We will create a test page that explores the acrylic paint quality of transparency and opacity. This is a practical lesson that will help you to chose the best paint options when you go to start a new project. 

I also touch on the idea of "cool" or "warm" bias of paint.  We will circle back to this quality of the acrylic paint in a later lesson.  

Below is the worksheet with all the measurements to create your own chart for this lesson.
