Expressionistic Painting With Specialty Inks (4 week course - Thursdays)

* See Date Options At Bottom * Suitable for those of any skill level, this course will introduce you to the fundamentals of working with an exciting specialty ink called alcohol inks on Yupo paper, a synthetic non-porous paper. Students will learn to manipulate the inks using various techniques and tools such as rubbing alcohol, straws, spray bottles, and paintbrushes to create beautiful patterns and textures. Alcohol inks are super bright, fluid, and highly interactive. The colors have unique properties when interacting with each other, allowing for exciting and unexpected results! Over the course of four weeks, students will have created several frameable pieces of happy art that reflect their unique style and personality. Unleash your creativity in this fun and engaging class.
Local artist Liz Filipancic began painting with watercolor nearly 20 years ago. Passionate about color and vibrancy, she discovered that alcohol inks offered the exciting colors and interesting reactions she craved in her art. And her enthusiasm is contagious.
