Acrylic painting workshop - With  Carl Turner

February 1st thru the 22nd, 2012

Bring your favorite photo and we'll explore fun and creative ways to paint in acrylics. We'll begin by exploring composition choices, learning what to leave in and what to leave out, how to plan a painting, explore color choices and how to draw using the grid method. Rather than a one-size-fits-all technique, we'll learn ways to bring your own personality at the process by exploring how to "see" as an artist, and how to use the versatility of acrylics to express just how you feel about your photograph. This class will be taught by award-winning illustrator and fine artist Carl Turner. Bring your friends and plan to break boundaries.
