United States

Beginners Acrylic step-by-step painting. This is an easy acrylic painting featuring the #American #flag painted on a #wood panel that has been stained and treated with gesso. Here are some facts regarding the American flag (taken from Wikipedia). The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 states of the United States of America, and the 13 stripes represent the thirteen British colonies that declared independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain, and became the first states in the U.S. Nicknames for the flag include The Stars and Stripes, Old Glory, and The Star Spangled Banner, and the Red, White and Blue. Below are the materials used for this painting. Links are provided for you to make things easy and convenient.

Have fun with the Pittsburgh Artist Studio during this BEGINNER HOW TO PAINT art lesson in acrylic art tutorial. This is an easy, fun, social art lesson for canvas. With Pittsburgh Artists help and guidance, anyone can paint. You can paint!

Want to see something? Just comment! Tell me what you'd like to paint, or what you want to know about art.

Acrylics are a fun and enjoyable painting medium. I prefer ‘Simply Simons' brushes or Princeton brand brushes, and I use Liquitex heavy body acrylic paint, Grumbacher, Winsor Newton, Craftsmart and Golden colors.

I love to teach people to paint in a supportive environment. Everyone deserves to have art in their lives whether through music or by the brush. It is a joy to be able to bring life to a blank canvas. Follow along and share your art journey with me! I look forward to hearing from you.
