About this lesson

A figurative painter's indirect acrylic method in nine steps. She prepares the panel with GAC 100 and gesso, lays a burnt sienna wash and a modified grisaille, then alternates transparent color layers (no white) with opaque form-building layers (with white). It ends with a gloss medium isolation coat before varnishing.
