You don’t need to be born with artistic talent to learn to paint with acrylics. And you certainly don’t need years of experience to find the joy in painting.
All you need is:
- a desire to create (which I know you have, otherwise you wouldn’t be here)
- an open mind
- dedicated time to explore your creative potential
I started acrylic painting as a hobby over 10 years ago, and I’m so glad I started. I’ve witnessed both the healing power that comes along with painting as well as the fulfillment of creating something with your hands.
