A water lily in acrylic for Patrice Baffou

The serenity of early morning, the surrealism of a foggy backdrop, the theatricality of a stormy scene… A memorable landscape is characterized first and foremost by an identifiable atmosphere.

The role played by a natural setting (sky, sea, field, prairie, etc.) depends on the place that it occupies in the composition, but also on the treatment that it receives.

A still life is a composition of live objects! While the direction of the lines or paint brush strokes makes handling volumes easier, your perfect mastery of color is what gives them realistic contours.

Framing, organization, exhibition…Composing a landscape requires knowing how to observe, but also how to make the best decisions at the right moment.

A basket of fruit or vegetables, an armful of freshly gathered flowers or a pair of eyeglasses left near an open book: a still life is a freeze frame. Here are a few pointers to breathe some life into it!

Adding three-dimensional lines is a totally original technique, consisting of squeezing color onto the painting surface with an applicator tip. However, you need good control because it is not easy to correct mistakes.

What is acrylic paint's greatest virtue? Its exceptional versatility! You can work with an infinite number of textures: opaque and thick like the oil painting, or delicately transparent and close to watercolor results.

Impastos, that is, texture effects, help make your material a lot more original! Plus, they are very easy to create
