Layers of Expression: Adding Depth, Texture, and Detail to Your Art

May 31 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Discover how to transform raw canvas into a captivating work of art in this hands-on class designed for all skill levels. You’ll learn to create dynamic abstract backgrounds using watered-down acrylics, layering techniques, and textural elements like modeling paste on the unique surface of raw canvas. From there, explore ways to elevate your piece with continuous line work, stippling, metallic highlights, and small realistic details to add depth and focus. Whether you’re looking to experiment with new techniques or refine your style, this class will guide you in creating art that is uniquely expressive and full of dimension.
