Domestika – Impressionist Painting with Acrylics Techniques for Urban Scenes

Explore the dynamic world of Impressionist painting with acrylics, a versatile medium known for its quick drying time and bold colors. In this course, you will dive deep into the techniques that make Impressionism so distinct, from applying dabs and blocks of color to understanding color mixing and light perception. Through practical demonstrations and step-by-step guidance, you will learn how to break down complex scenes into manageable sections, painting street scenes full of life, light, and movement.
Led by Hashim Akib, a professional artist with decades of experience, this course will guide you through the process of painting in a loose, expressive style, capturing the essence of your subject without overworking details. By the end, you will have a deeper understanding of how to manipulate acrylics for maximum impact, working confidently with brushstrokes, color contrasts, and compositions that tell a story.
