SUMMARY:Acrylics for Beginners - Bold\, Fast & Loose!
DESCRIPTION:Bold\, fast and loose technique\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe will spend a fun-filled half-day immersed in the world of acrylics for beginners\, which will include impasto techniques. We will establish a base set of acrylic painting skills and then deconstruct and simplify objects and references\, enabling us to capture them in acrylics using thickly laid passages of paint\, either with a brush or a palette knife. \n\n\n\nBy the end of the morning\, we will have developed confidence in using acrylics and also applying paint thickly to the canvas\, incorporating some on-canvas mixing and blending\, without creating a muddy texture. We’ll get a bit messy\, have loads of fun\, kickstart a new painting habit (and technique)\, and enjoy cake from the café! What could be better? No previous experience is necessary; a no-excuse price with materials provided! \n\n\n\nThe morning will be filled with fast-paced learning exercises and mini-tutorials to entertain and help you make significant strides in your confidence and control in this interesting and freeing technique. \n\n\n\n\nImpasto is a technique used in painting\, where paint is laid on an area of the surface thickly\, usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Paint can also be mixed right on the canvas. When dry\, impasto provides texture; the paint appears to be coming out of the canvas. (Wikipedia) \n\n\n\n\n\nBold\, fast and loose technique
