 Fluid Acrylic Wet-On-Wet Workshop

Instructor: Sue Marentette

- This class is 
designed for intermediate and advanced students who will experiment 
with fluid acrylic paints,  building texture and movement in their abstract paintings, with a great accent on the elements of design and composition.
Come out and explore different ways of manipulating acrylic paint and developing your painting skills. Through demonstration and the creative process, you will be able to effectively create a rich and brilliant piece of art. The techniques we will be using are offered only as elements, which will help build on painting experiences you already have.

 Fluid Acrylic Workshop- This class is designed for all levels- Just paint!.....what a 
novel idea! It has been said that rules were meant to be broken and this workshop 
is precisely that. It's about breaking painting rules and making your own......and 
then breaking them just to see what might happen! It's about pushing paint around 
in response to its addictive invitations to play, to dare, to experiment, and to become. And now, without limitation, it's about getting back to you and giving yourself the glorious permission to just paint! What a novel idea!
Date:Saturday
