PRE-ORDER NOW, AVAILABLE 12/1: This is the guide I wish I had had when I started painting on plexiglass back in 2017. No doubt that painted plexiglass creates complex, stunning effects through layering, depth and transparency. But this tricky substrate is like no other, and can be frustrating and costly if you don't know how to work with it. From my personal experience and experimentation on this fickle surface over the years, I share the technical knowledge I've gained from painting dozens and dozens of artworks, including massive corporate installations that have graced convention centers, community buildings and 2-story tall lobbies, garnering $6-$19K per project.
Armed with over 3,500 words across 25 pages with supporting visuals and 30 linked video clips, this pdf will allow you to bypass the headaches, expensive mistakes and lost time, and be poised to paint like a pro. This 25-page instructional guide includes step-by-step instructions to create 3 different looks, as well as lessons learned, valuable tips, resources, and tried-and-true linked products in a pre-populated shopping cart to jumpstart your confidence and creativity.

If you are interested in getting more corporate projects, this is an excellent next step in what you can offer.
