Acrylics For Beginners
May 14 – 10:00 am – 4:00 pm

From zero to acrylics hero! We will spend a fun-filled day immersed in the world of acrylics. By the end of the day, we will have developed confidence in the properties of acrylic paint, how to avoid creating mud, and layering your compositions using this fun and vibrant medium. We will get a bit messy, have loads of fun, kickstart a new painting habit and eat cake from the café! What could be better? No previous experience is necessary, and the price is fantastic for a full-day course!
The day will be full of fast-paced learning exercises and mini-tutorials to entertain and help you make great strides in your confidence and control. We’ll even be using palette knives to paint and collage! By the end of the session, you will be in control of what happens on your canvas (well, to some degree!) 🙂
Areas covered will include:
- Bold, fast and loose technique
- Value & Volume
- Colour Theory
- Dark to Light Layering
- Form & Perspective
