The colors are just so rich and vibrant and I really love the consistency of the paint and how it flows. I think the price is great on these tubes if you’re looking for a nice economical option as an upgrade from craft paints! *Update, after doing several paintings with the Americana Premiums, I still enjoy using them! I noticed that a few of the colors are translucent, almost too watery. You will need to apply multiple coats but that really didn’t bother me. The paintings I’ve done so far with the Americana dry in a very rich, pretty satin finish. *Although I didn’t do extensive comparing and contrasting, I’d say it is very much on par with the Liquitex BASICS or the Artist Loft student grade paint.

I have provided a traceable of both the barn and the windmill. Make sure you get yourself a very good detailer round brush! I’d say it’s slightly harder than some of the other paintings on this website but only because there are a lot of fine lines to paint. This is definitely a “more traditional” and “less whimsical” painting. The following post is a full and detailed step by step painting tutorial. Beginners can learn how to paint this colorful, bright and cheerful Fall Barn! This painting is an 11″ x 14″ canvas with acrylic paints.
