i assume you have done watercolors before


that is my only painting experience before. I did maybe 5 water color paintings back in 1995 for the last art class I took in 7th grade.

Ah

You sound like you retained quite a bit tbh reading how you set everything up first
IIRC you can't really layer transparent paint with acrylic


I started taking an acrylic painting class, 3 sessions in. so far its just been how to make colors from your primary colors + white and black, shading, blending and how acrylics are as a medium.

I wanted to be able to paint along with bob ross so I'm trying to use acrylics to do oil techniques so I'm having to change up how I do some things. Bob does "wet on wet" which you can't really do with acrylics but I'm trying to find ways to make it work.

And yeah, the layering transparent with acrylic is definitely the biggest difficulty of the medium so im having to like figure out some way to get the effects bob does but with a different material so yeah.
