Wayne Jiang – Applying the Color Recipe to Autumn Landscape Painting in Acrylic (Online)
Just like cooking a delicious dish using a cooking recipe, you can spice up your painting using a color recipe!
Date recorded: Thursday, November 20, 2025
In an hour, Wayne will transform a normal autumn landscape reference into a vibrant and glowing sunset painting using one of his tried and true color recipes and acrylic transparent layering techniques.
The demo will begin with a short slideshow presentation on how to shift colors using color recipes and steps of the acrylic layering technique followed by a 50-minute painting demo. This is an easy technique for people transitioning from watercolor or gouache to acrylic as it builds on existing watercolor and gouache techniques.
If you enjoy this presentation or make work inspired by it, please leave a comment below the recording.

Wayne Jiang is a Portland-based realist acrylic painter. Combining the aesthetic of 17th century Baroque paintings and the composition of modern documentary photography, his works have been described as the contemporary interpretations of Vermeer and Hopper. His work has been widely exhibited in museums and galleries such as the Morris Graves Museum of Art, Triton Museum, Crocker Museum, Lan Su Chinese Garden, History San José, and Guardino Gallery.As an art educator, Wayne specializes in teaching acrylic both in person and online. He has 3 decades of experience working with acrylic and 13 years teaching the medium. His students are artists with diverse skill levels: from someone who has never painted to professional artists who want to refine their acrylic technique or learn a new medium. Wayne’s deep interest in art history is incorporated in both his paintings and how he teaches.
