Acrylic Painting - Blending
Blending is the process of smoothly transitioning between colours or tones, creating soft gradients and realistic shading. Acrylic paint has a fast drying time, which can make blending challenging, but with the right techniques and mediums, artists can achieve seamless results.
Our Comparison of Golden Acrylic Mediums looks at all the different ways you can modify acrylic paint, including blending with acrylics. We explore how mediums such as Glazing Liquid let you create oil-paint-like glazes and blend acrylic colour for subtle colour transitions. You can also learn more about blending in our Guide to Acrylic Painting.
Blending is widely used in portrait painting, skies, and abstract works to create smooth transitions. Whether using wet-on-wet, glazing, or dry blending methods, learning how to blend effectively will add realism and dimension to your paintings.
