We will show you three different paint techniques that will have you making artwork you will be proud to display in your home.
Paint By Number For Adults
Paint by numbers kits have come a long way from the early years. The paintings are unbelievably detailed and the end results are high-quality. A photograph can even be made into a paint by number kit. Many people love painting this way because they feel it reduces stress, gives them a feeling of accomplishment and have high-quality artwork as an end result.
The video below is from Winnie’s Picks a company that sells absolutely gorgeous paint by number kits. The time-lapse video shows how easy it is to produce a beautiful piece of art from start to finish. Just fill in the numbered spaces and the picture comes together. Your first creation will be breathtaking. The end product is so beautiful that many people like to give these pieces of art as gifts.

Paint and Sip Parties

If you have never gone to a Paint and Sip party, you don’t know all the fun you are missing. These events are attended by people that wish to paint but don’t always know where to begin. The instructor provides all the paint and supplies and has a predetermined painting that everyone makes together. All you have to do is follow the instructor’s examples. She will show you what colors to put on your brush and how to paint each stroke. At the end of the event, everyone goes home with a similar painting.
These events are usually accompanied by a glass of wine (the sip part of the event) and make a great night out for you and your friends. Painting in this type of environment helps people loosen up and let go of fear.
These three techniques can help anyone develop their artistic skills. You have no excuses! Go out there and produce your art for the world!

I wish I had found this site long ago! I have not made anything yet, but I will soon. When I do I will come back and leave another comment. First I want to make the windchime with the crooked branch and then an acrylic pour. Now to get busy! ☺
