Hi there!

Ready to paint this beautiful African Sunset Landscape with Bold & Expressive Silhouettes? Don't worry! It's not as difficult as it appears to be. In fact, it's very simple if only you break it down in different layers. And in this class I will teach you how you can break it down and paint it layer by layer with me.

I will first discuss all the materials we need for the class. Trust me, nothing fancy is needed :)

And then we will jump into practicing all the techniques needed to paint the final painting. And guess what? You will be painting an additional silhouette landscape, as a reward of the practice/warmup session. Not just painting, in this course I will also teach you how to sketch the silhouettes of different animals. You can sketch it with me or you can download the sketch from the resource and copy it from there.

Once you are confidant, we will move on to the final project and paint a bigger and better African Sunset Landscape. Sounds interesting? See you in the class!

Here are the materials you will need:

• Heavy Body Acrylic colours (any brand)

• Palette Knife

• Flat and round brushes (any brand)

• Canvas board

• Masking tape

• Jar or water

• Rough cloth/ Paper towel

• Basic Stationary

• Last but most important: Patience!

In case of any doubt, please feel free to reach out. I will be happy to help.

Finally, remember to be kind with yourself. Do not judge yourself and do not compare your artwork with anyone else's. Every artist is unique and so is every artwork. Perfection comes with a lot of practice and not overnight. Our aim here is to learn something new and enjoy the process of learning.

Good Luck!

Project Description

For the class project you will have to upload the picture of the landscape you have painted following the tips and techniques I've taught you in the class. You can choose to keep it exactly like mine. Or you can change the colours and even the composition as per your liking. You are free to take that creative liberty and paint your own version of these beautiful landscapes. I will be happy to see what you come up with. So do not forget to upload it in the project gallery for me and others to see.
