We will study the technique
For more than 10 years of working with acrylic, Svetlana Rumak has developed
several unique signature techniques of acrylic painting on paper and on canvas.
Within 2 hours of this masterclass, we will thoroughly study one of the author's painting techniques with acrylic on paper, which Svetlana Rumak has named 'Colored'.

We will practice the tricks
Author's 'Colored' technique is one of the first ones that Svetlana developed, and over the years, there have been so many unique trciks for drawing objects and textures that we had to divide all the material into 3 masterclasses - 'Colored Portrait', 'Colored Still Life. Flowers in a glass vase' and 'Colored still life. Pears and Grapes'.
In the course of this masterclass, we will practice this technique together with Svetlana and study its nuances, creating a still life 'Flowers in a glass vase'.
Svetlana will show how to draw all kinds of flowers (chamomile, hyacinths, tulips, dandelions, etc.), herbs, and how in a few simple steps to achieve an effect of lightness and transparency of the object sparkling in the sun.

We will study 'the very basics'
We are going to analyze the most basic tricks of drawing a voluminous object using light and shade (this information will be especially useful for novice artists) and study several unique features of the volume image in this technique.
We will learn how to invent unusual compositions eaily and playfully, how to make your work 'complete' but not 'tortured', maintaining lightness, airiness and creativity.

We will draw two works
Under the guidance of Svetlana, each participant will draw 2 (and some even 4!) small works on paper.
Support
Immediately after the payment, each participant of the masterclass receives a link to private groups on Facebook, where you can ask questions on how to prepare for the masterclass, and during the masterclass you can post your works at different stages.
Svetlana will comment on the result and provide individual feedback during and at the end of the video masterclass.
The access to the group is unlimited, which makes it possible to get back to the materials in the group after the workshop. There you can also find information about new tutorials and masterclasses of Svetlana Rumak.

Advice on composition
At the end of the workshop, Svetlana will give tips on the design of the finished works and show how to arrange the work on paper in a passe partout.
Q&A
The concluding part of the workshop is Q&A session wtih the participants, discussion of works in the private Facebook group.
Dear beginners - you will succeed too! :)
The program of the masterclass was put together and tried out during dozens of masterclasses over the past 5 years in such a way that even participants, who take the brush for the first time, achieve amazing results!)
The technique is divided into several very simple and understandable stages.
We will not use difficult professional notions. All new information will be presented in plain language.
Each trick and stage Svetlana will show all over again, so you may not worry that you miss something or misunderstand.
After explaining each new step, Svetlana will give the participants the necessary time to do this stage on their own to practice the skill.
At the end of the masterclass, we will repeat everything and write it down.

For kids
In our experience, this masterclass suits children from 8
years old, but, of course, it depends on many factors - the child's
perseverance, their desire to learn to draw, etc.
For younger children, an adult supervisor's presence is highly recommended.

I can't draw a thing!
You have not taken a brush and pencils in your hands since those times when you were forced to draw a dull paraffin tomato on art classes at school? However, deep inside you have always wanted to draw - for yourself, freely, easily, without thinking about the rules and that you do not have a special education...
I am eager to draw, but... I'm scared!..
You are full of ideas and creativity; you are sitting comfortably, getting a clean sheet (or a canvas) ... and all of a sudden .... Ahhh!!! Here it is, the fear of the 'blank sheet'!
'What if it doesn't work out? What if I spoil it? What if I have no talent at all?'... It is clear that the problem is psychological, so maybe I can go to a psychologist???' How to remove these fears and start getting pleasure from the creative process?

I never want to think on 'what to give as a present' :)
Tomorrow is your mom's birthday, on Friday - your best friend's... And you don't know what to give to a person who has everything, with impeccable taste?.. You must know that when a guest says 'The best gift is a gift made with your own hands' and hands over a parcel, the birthday person smiles frigidly)) But how nice it is when you know how to do
something out of thin air! Then friends and relatives order gifts in advance - because you are at your best! )) And then, you see, who knows – maybe it's not far till you 'monetize' your hobby…)

I want more inspiration…
You are a novice artist. You seem to have studied both the rules of construction, the laws of composition, and the linear perspective...
But with inspiration, alas, you've got a problem... I think I want to draw, but what stops me? You want to grab the paints, but so far there are no ideas on your mind...
But with inspiration, alas, you've got a problem... I think I want to draw, but what stops me? You want to grab the paints, but so far there are no ideas on your mind...
I want to try something new!..
You are a 'painting' artist. Perhaps you have already developed your own style, but now you are looking around in search of new materials and techniques. You want to have a 'new deal', adding new technique and tricks to your recognizable style, and maybe discovering a new page for yourself in your creative way...
Acrylic appeals to me, but I still do not know it well...
'Oil on canvas' - here it is, the eternal, timeless classics, but alas! You are engaged in creative work at home, but at home your family are annoyed by the smell of oil paints... It is impossible to wash off Viridian green from your cat, and your hands unconditionally give out your 'creative nature'... Or, maybe, like I many years ago, you became allergic to oil paints. Hurray, they have invented acrylic - odorless, diluted with water, easily washed off from hands and cats)) You came to an art supplies shop, bought everything that appealed to your eye, but... It suddenly turned out that acrylic is completely different from oil... How to get used to acrylic without spending a lot of time, color and, most importantly, nerves?
