Watercolour and Acrylic Inks
Some of the more daring and vibrant watercolours of the last 30 years explore combining the delicacy of watercolours with the impact and opaque strength of acrylic inks. You can do everything from drawing with the acrylic inks and tinting with watercolours to full scale painting combining the two mediums. This course looks at some of the more common approaches used by many painters delighting in what the two mediums have to offer watercolourists today.
