I appreciate this course for providing a systematic foundation in acrylics. This is something I have never done academically, and I feel I am on a better footing to move forward. Personally, the value lessons and the underpainting and glazing were the most enjoyable for me. I struggled with working with a knife and don’t feel drawn to abstract works. But it was good to at least try them out. This has been perfect for me, thank you.

Wow! What a valuable and informative course…. I have been struggling with painting in acrylics, especially underpainting and glazing. But the knowledge I gained from this course gives me a better way to practice painting in acrylics. Thank you, Matt, for providing “cohesion” to an otherwise confusing world of acrylic painting.

Hi Matt,

I completed this course and learned a lot from you. My main reason for joining this community was to learn acrylic painting. Do you plan to upload more acrylic painting lessons? Also, can you recommend some books for acrylic paintings. I am a beginner artist and I find it difficult to find a reference picture to use for my paintings – any suggestions on this can also be helpful.

Thanks,
Shahana K.

Thank you so much for this course! You have taught me so much, I will revisit the modules again and again I’m sure! Thank you thank you thank you for giving me the skills to do something I never thought I could, at 46 years old! When I look at my completed works I actually feel good about myself, which is not something I am used to feeling. I want to learn more! You broke the tasks down into manageable steps, explained them thoroughly, illustrated them perfectly. You are a fantastic teacher! I’m on my way to sign up for course number two! Do you have any other acrylic courses? I’d be into that in a big way!

Thanks so much!!
