This is my new favorite thing to
do: wire drawings. They are done with permanent markers, but
they look like they are wire sculptures!
That’s why I invented the name, “wire drawings”. We will have one day of wire drawings, and
watercolor paintings and the other days will involve learning how to paint
groups of people in an illusionary manner.
You may or may not choose to add collage. You know me, I will more than likely be
adding collage, but you have the option either way.

I’ll demonstrate painting people in
this workshop, however, you can paint totally abstract if you would prefer. No
drawing experience necessary. I have
shortcuts to make drawing people really easy!
This workshop will concentrate on how to get many textures that only
acrylic allows. We will be using rubbing
alcohol, different surface textures, and many other tricks to come up with
special effects. Each painting will have about 4 layers to produce the special
effects. So fun! I’m really enjoying
acrylic most of all lately! Can’t wait
to share my tricks!

We will get to doodle to our heart’s content in this workshop. Acrylic actually makes this process easier,
but if you’d rather work in watercolor and collage, that’s fine too. This workshop will emphasize good design and
lots of tricks to make the detail work easier.
We will also be working with several different types of metallic special
effects and will be studying Gustav Klimt’s paintings.
