In this three week painting workshop, I will show you how to push the limits of your acrylics by using several different acrylic techniques. You will be working in a semi-disciplined environment which means, I will show you structure and technique while you bring your individuality! Throughout the workshop, we will create 3 different mini-series and one final individual project so there is lots to do..your hands will be full, but you will have a lot of fun doing it!
