Supplies, information and details for: Jerry's Live - Episode #127: Part 2: Turner Acryl Gouache LIVE Demo - How To Paint An Eye

Known as “the windows to the soul”, eyes are one of the things we look at most when interacting with others, since they portray far more about how a person feels than their words or behavior actually conveys. If we spend so much time studying them, why as artists do we find them so difficult to represent when painting? Besides getting the shape of the eye correct, getting realistic color and highlights to achieve true depth and convey form can be quite a struggle. Using the rich, velvety matteness of Turner Acryl Gouache’s Smart Set of 12 (that comes with color mixing cards), Amy will walk us step by step though painting a closeup of an eye, giving us insightful techniques for practical application. Before the show’s completion, we will showcase work done with some of the wonderfully unique lines in this 236 color brand. JL126 Part One: Our first part of this two part LIVE Episode series will focus on What exactly Acrylic Gouache IS, and the working properties of it. With the samples that were sent out to viewers, we will test some of the opacity and cover how to thin the paint, and discuss the Smart Set and how to target color mixing proportions. Then we will discuss the subject matter of the eye and the complexities of it, and get our drawing down for the start of the painting, for the next week. JL127 Part Two: The second part of this two part LIVE Episode series will focus on the actual painting of the eye, using the Turner Acryl Gouache Smart Set of 12, by utilizing its color cards to choose appropriate color selections for painting. This episode will be set up “cooking show style”, starting from the drawing that we completed on episode JL126 the week before.
