About this Event
IN-PERSON WORKSHOP:
Explore the amazing possibilities of painting with alcohol based inks and markers on Yupo paper! During this in-person workshop, Brett will give us an introduction to the technique and share visual examples of how alcohol inks and markers can be used to create vibrant, expressive paintings. We will then begin practicing with the materials on a test sheet of Yupo paper. Experimenting in this way will help us become more familiar with the behavioral properties of the inks and markers as they interact with the alcohol. Brett will proceed to guide us through the process of compositional layout based on a provided still life. Lastly, we will fill in areas with colored inks, and explore our own color interpretations for a truly unique result!
