Learn how to add depth to your artwork with acrylics and baking soda! In this experience, Yanna guides you in transforming a simple scenic photo into a textured work of art. Use Smart Trace to sketch out your composition, block in colors with your acrylics, and then mix some baking soda into your paints to create a thick, heavy-body concoction that adds visible texture to your landscape foreground. Follow along with Yanna's photo reference, or apply what you learn to create a textured work of art from a scenic photo in your camera roll!
