Learn The Will Terry Acrylic “Dry Brush” Style 

Here is a little acrylic sketch that FolioAcademy artist/instructor Will Terry did awhile ago. I was a fellow Art Student with him in college back when he was trying to find his niche and style. I remember him looking for a real toothy texture that would peal the paint off his brush. It took him years to master this style but it was worth it.

He eventually developed his own recipe for a painting. The ingredients include thumbnail sketches and getting the drawing designed just right and transferring that onto the paper.

Then getting the texture just right with a clear gel medium that would allow the drawing to show up perfectly.

He then tones the surface usually with a medium value color then adding dark paint where needed and then gradually, using a DRY brush and very little paint, he adds lighter and lighter acrylic paint. Light on Dark.

He teaches this process here at FolioAcademy.com, Just click on the link and purchase his tutorial.
