Before the color attack



After the color attack for R. big art


Meet the new stars: Acrylic color and brushes!

Tools to paint

This week we are looking closer to brushes... 

The best ones are those with natural fur... like the Marta, they can handle high humidity, but they are expensive...
The other natural brushes are made with ear ox fur and squirrel tail! And in this class we don't use any of those... lets keep it animal friendly!
By the way this is a Marta right here:

...The ear of the ox...


...and the little Squirrel...


Different types of brushes

To our work we need tree types of brushes:

The round


The flat

The Almond

Composition of the Brushe


Be careful to not touch the fur or the gage during your work... and try not to let the paint go in the gage or cable either... keep your work clean

To clean in the end of the work


Water and soap is the best!  Just try small circles in your palm until the bubbles are clean!

Enjoy!
