Paint Blending Workshop
Learn exactly how to improve your blending “technique” as a painter, and practice it in-depth with this workshop class. Follow along with the printable workbook above (hint: you can print it on any type of paper; it doesn’t matter!), or follow along with a blank sheet or two of regular paper as you watch the guided class video.
Some materials you will need to take this workshop class include:
- One paintbrush
- Something to mix paints with (such as paint spatulas, popsicle sticks, even a butter knife)
- Something to mix paints on (like a palette or a paper plate)
- A water cup and towel or napkin (for brush cleaning)
- Acrylic paints in these colors:
- White
- At least one true “color” (red, blue, orange… it doesn’t matter!)
This workshop will take you through the process of blending paint directly on the page, plus you will get to make some realistic sphere shapes with white highlights. Take it as many times as you’d like to get lots of practice in, and feel free to print the workbook pages as many times as you need!
