Acrylic, Stroke-Free - Rhonda Nass, Instructor
If visions of harshly colored gobs of paint come to mind when you hear the word acrylic, you are not alone. This class will blow that perspective out the window. Through a simple, step-by-step exercise, you'll learn a unique acrylic technique that involves diluting paint from the tube and applying layers of translucent color with a feathering stroke that results in a stroke-free final appearance with unlimited potential for extremely tight detail and dramatic coloring and lighting. We'll take a fresh (and brief) look at composition and proceed with each artist beginning a painting using the subject of her/his choice. There will be time to gain enough skill through demonstrations, one-on-one time, and practice in the workshop, so that you leave the class confident to complete (with excellence) your own acrylic artwork.
