Acrylic Classes 2020

Video Lessons Through YouTube

Edit: If you are new to my posts you might want to check out the side bar where you will find equipment lists for the things I use in class and the videos as well as some of my other favorite links. The YarnellSchool link is to Jerry Yarnell's website and if it weren't for him I wouldn't be teaching acrylics. He has a lot of good info on his site as well as another source for equipment.

Also, if you need more to keep yourself busy, you can scroll down through the years of posts that I have been doing for my classes, they are written posts with photos but there is a lot of information there.

You will find the links to my YouTube channel as well as the link to the video reference material and my email contact at the bottom of this post.

Also, looks like You Tube has redesigned the way the page looks and that band of videos at the top only revels 12 posts even if there are more. If you look at above the thumbnails you will see "Home Videos etc..." and if you click on the Videos you will see all of my posts.

We are all painfully aware of the circumstances we all find ourselves in during this unprecedented time in our history. I know how hard it is to stay home and not get together with family and friends but it is what we need to do to keep ourselves, our families, friends, neighbors and people in general, safe, the problem is we need something to do while we are sheltering at home so we don't pull our hair out.

Many of my students contacted me asking, sometimes desperately, when we were to have classes again, my answer is: I don't know. Maybe there will be summer classes, it really depends on this virus and if we can turn the corner, the City of Torrance will let me know.

Videos were something I was thinking of doing though this is not quite the way I had planned to do them. I just wanted to do some basic techniques or studies, nothing real elaborate so I could figure out how to do them, then Covid19 reared its ugly head and my plans changed.

I have been working on lessons for all 3 mediums of my classes (watercolor, acrylic and pastel) and to say there has been a steep learning curve would be an understatement but it has kept me busy and kept my mind focused on something besides a World in a panic. I hope that you find them interesting or, at least distracting, even if they are a bit "rough" right now, I am finding my way and doing it all myself, I have no one else to blame. Like I said it has been a steep learning curve but I think I am figuring it out now so the next ones will get easier.

Since there will be a videos I won't be posting a written blog until classes start up again but there is a pause and rewind button if you need to review.

So for now, stay home, stay safe, call your neighbors and friends and keep painting, I hope to see you in class again real soon.
