Kevin Greeland Workshop – Layering With Acrylics
Layering With Acrylics - GOLDEN Acrylic Essentials Workshop
May 7 & 8, 2015; 10am-4pm
$250 – Limit 12 students
Learn the fundamentals of layering with acrylic paints and mediums in this hands-on workshop. Work with a
variety of color applications using Golden's Fluid Acrylics, High Flow Acrylics, and Open Acrylics — We’ll dabble
with QoR Watercolors. Exploring through collage and painting with impasto effects, glazing, printmaking,
water-media, and ink-like effects. Discover how gels and pastes can be used to make multiple layers, creating
interesting textures, learn image transfers, acrylic "skins", and create surfaces that simulate encaustic waxes
and much more. We’ll use Iridescent paints to create a metal-like finish that we can then create a faux patina
with Fluid paints. Students will make several paintings using acrylic products provided by Golden Paint with
tools and materials provided by the instructor. All levels are welcome. Free literature packet and a free sample
bag of Golden products!
