A B C of Acrylic Painting “Bird of Paradise”

by Guy Wann

Overview

Painting with oils can be a challenge, but acrylic paints are an excellent choice for beginners. You can take them directly from the tubes and place them on a palette. If you're stressed about a subject to choose, consider painting a Bird of Paradise, which is a type of flower. While it might sound intimidating, it's very methodical. Painting a bird of paradise gives you the opportunity to use bright, fun colors and to work with lines in your painting.
