The Original Paint Nite: Unleash your inner artist

Unique 3hr Virtual Workhop: Take your painting technique to the next level!

You don't have to be an advanced artist to take this class but some painting experience would be helpful. If you've done a couple of Paint Nites before, you should be good to go=)

The workshop is going to be recorded and will be available for viewing for a month afterwards.  Please disregard the "non-recorded" message above.   

During the workshop, we will go over several principles and techniques for creating a sense of depth in your painting:

• color changes with distance
• Background vs. foreground details
• Object overlap as a tool 
• Object sizing

We will be doing several small studies to practice the above principles.

You will need YOUR OWN SUPPLIES for Virtual Events. You can get them easily from your local art/craft store: 

• A canvas pad OR a  pad of HEAVY (!) paper (at least 300 gsm/140 lbs, i.e. cardboard weight: either mixed-media, printing, bristol or cheap watercolor paper), either 9"x12", 11"x14" or similar size. If you have cheap canvases (or if they are easier to find), you can use those instead. We'll need ~8-10 sheets or small canvases. If your canvases are large (16x20 or larger) you'll need 2-3.
• Acrylic paint ( white, black, red (magenta, quinacridone red or bright red), yellow and blue (Phthalocyanine (or phtalo) blue is best but most other ones should be fine)
• A paper plate (or a piece of plastic/cardboard)
• A water cup
• A variety of brushes ( I recommend a large flat brush , a medium square brush (it's called a "bright") and a small detail brush)
• Paper towels

You will also need to install ZOOM prior to the event. You will get a one time link to access the event. The workshop is ~3 hours and you will be able to log on ~ 10-15 minutes before the start time.

I look forward to painting with you!
