Unleash Your Inner Artist with Serendipitous Techniques Fun with String!

Unleash Your Inner Artist with Serendipitous Techniques Fun with String!

“Pouring, puddling, dripping, swiping… this class will explore the exciting possibilities in the technique often called Acrylic Pour! At its simplest it is pouring paint across a canvas instead of applying it with a brush.

Today we’ll Go with the Flow using fluid acrylics and string! 

Acrylic Pours allow for a great deal of opportunity to indulge your inner artist using your favored colors and playing with variables. So, as always in an acrylic flow painting class, you may elect to try a different flow painting technique.  I’ll be happy to share what I know to assist!😊
