SUMMER: NEW IDEAS: TAKE YOUR MARKS!
Acrylic Painting – Processes & Techniques with Richard Adams
Explore the dynamic world of acrylic painting in this hands-on workshop designed for all experience levels—from curious beginners to seasoned artists looking to shake things up.
Through a playful and process-based approach, you'll dive into essential painting techniques such as underpainting, mark-making, layering, and expressive gesture. You'll experiment with how colour, light, surface, and texture interact to build depth and atmosphere in your work.
This course is paper-based only and it will be supplied, making it perfect for fast, fearless experimentation.
