Abstract Acrylic Painting

Abstract Acrylic Painting

This class is designed for beginning to intermediate students. If you have some background this can be helpful. This class will be directed toward making abstract paintings using acrylic paint and other mixed media.  This class will provide hands-on instruction in preparing surfaces, color mixing, glazing, scumbling, and using mediums.  We will use a variety of techniques from underpainting and glazing to alla prima, impasto, pouring, and collage techniques. The class will also work on free-form abstraction that may have no representational subject.
