JIZZ DENOUEMENT: Oct 3, 2012; STRIKE!

Hi my name is Jizz Denouement. More than a decade ago I was pretty decent at oil paints, latex-based wood paints, and ceramics. I've dived back into painting after this long gap with acrylics because my significant other had a decent foundation of tools.

I am freaking terrible. Like, I can't even apply the paint from tube to palette to brush to canvas properly. Are there some good online resources or youtube series that provide a good introduction to painting with acrylics?

Could probably nit-pick this until the heat death of the universe, but I�m calling it. But it�s the first time I�ve really done a landscape, though, and I�m generally happy with all the textures.

That bit of hatching on the left was ill-advised. A little torn about the clouds but don�t know what I�d do with them.

I love the art in this gosh darn thread.

Thanks people! I just pulled the trigger on some heavy body paints and matte medium. To contribute, here's a painting I finished last night. You can see where I tried to apply 10 coats of cad red light hue with a touch of black as the shadow and it's still blotchy. Also two smudges that I fixed after I took the pic...

Good content
