🎨 Discover the Painting Techniques That Can Transform Your Art into Pure Emotion

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, knowing different painting techniques is essential to evolving as an artist. More than just styles, these techniques are tools that open up new ways of expressing yourself, experimenting, and telling stories through art.

Today, we're going to show you how each technique can impact your way of creating and offer new visual paths to explore.

🖌️ 1. Watercolor: lightness and transparency

Watercolor is known for its delicacy and fluidity. With it, you can create soft atmospheres, subtle tones, and unique transparency effects. Ideal for landscapes, poetic portraits, and color studies.

Tip: Work in layers and control the amount of water to obtain different results.

🎨 2. Acrylic: versatility and intensity

Acrylic paint dries quickly and has high pigmentation. It's perfect for those who like to create freely, experiment with mixed media, and work with bright colors and textured layers.

🖼️ 3. Oil on canvas: depth and tradition

The classic oil painting technique offers total control over nuances and allows for long working sessions, ideal for realistic effects and intense luminosity.

Artists such as Van Gogh and Rembrandt explored this technique to the fullest.

🧩 4. Mixed media: unleash your creativity

Combining different materials and approaches in a single work expands creative possibilities. The mixed technique allows you to mix paint, collage, textures and even physical objects.

Example: Use acrylic as a base, finish with pastel chalk and add collages on recycled paper.

🔪 5. Spatula: texture and movement

With the spatula, you apply paint directly to the canvas, creating volumes and thick layers. The result? A lively, expressive and energetic painting.
