The Art of Fixing Acrylic Fails & Pretending You Meant to Do That

Troubleshoot Drying Drama, Color Chaos, and Zombie Layers

CA$19.99


Your paint is cracking. Your colors are muddy. Your brush is now a fossil. Welcome to the chaotic, hilarious world of acrylics—where mistakes are inevitable, but owning them is an art form.

This isn’t your grandma’s painting guide. This 23-page survival manual is for artists who’ve accidentally turned sunsets into mud puddles, blended edges into zebra stripes, or created “texture” that looks like a gravel road. Packed with clever ways to rebrand blunders as brilliance, you’ll learn to:

  • Rescue dried brushes (RIP, old friend).

  • Fix cracks, streaks, and “why is it shiny here?!”

  • Blend like a pro (even if you’re sweating like a contestant on Nailed It!).

  • Turn “oops” into “abstract genius” (critics will never know).

Written with zero pretension and maximum humor, this bite-sized book is your paint-splattered best friend. Whether you’re a newbie who thinks “gesso” is a fancy cheese or a seasoned artist who still panics when layers lift, you’ll find lifesaving fixes, cheeky encouragement, and proof that happy accidents are just art in disguise.

Perfect for:

  • Artists who want quick fixes, not a 300-page snooze-fest.

  • Overthinkers who blend themselves into a meltdown.

  • Anyone who wants to laugh while they learn (in under 30 pages!).

Stop stressing. Start pretending.
(And maybe actually become a better artist along the way.)
