Fast and Easy Acrylic Painting Technique for Beginners - Creating Waterfall Effect -- TECHNIQUE ONLY - NOT A FULL TUTORIAL

*NOTE: Remember the old Seinfeld episode about the "close talker"? This video reminds me of that...it was shot a bit too close...sometimes it gets a bit blurry, but I decided to share it because it's a pretty decent technique...don't say I didn't warn you!*

SIMPLE - FAST - EASY TECHNIQUE

I call this a "waterfall" effect which is basically cascading colors that you can build a pretty waterscape over.

I used a few different items:

Prepped canvas board

Acrylics: turquoise, cerulean blue, gold, white

Texture: already applied to board - molding paste

Flat brush

Palette knife

Happy painting!
