Indulge in exploring innovative techniques while you create elegant surfaces with a luxurious patina and gentle glow in this essential acrylic workshop! Here is your chance to experiment with gel mediums, gesso and stains to produce exquisite texture and low relief working foundations. Your expressive under-paintings can simply be appreciated on their own merit as refined finished pieces or developed with glazing techniques and luminous layers while building personal symbols. Daily projects of a variety of subject matter will incorporate alternative negative painting strategies, techniques for softening edges and blending color and effective brushwork. Discover the successful sequencing of transparent glazes and velvety opaque that establish the subtle transitions of hues and the layering of lost and found edges to conjure mystery and intrigue in your evocative and distinctive works of art.
