Workshops
WHY was my workshop cancelled? We’re all busy and tend to wait to the last minute, but if a workshop does not have sufficient enrollment by two or three weeks prior to the start date, it will be cancelled. Please don’t wait until the last couple of days to enroll. You may find that the class has been cancelled, perhaps unnecessarily.

Lana's painting

WATERMEDIA AND COLLAGE (intermediate)   February 21-  February 25, 2011

Lana's website:  lanagrow.com

This class introduces new and experimental ways of painting with acrylics and producing water based acrylic works.  Be ready to try one thing after another as we move from transparent to translucent to opaque! We will be exploring the use of acrylic, heavy gel medium, gesso, stenciling, stamping, gold leaf, texture, collage and other experimental techniques.  Emphasis is to achieve line, depth and texture in your work.  The focus of the workshop is abstract; however, combining abstract with realistic elements is an option.
