Fall Colours Palette Knife Painting Workshop

Embrace the beauty of fall and all its unique colours with this 2 day workshop!

Overview

Learn how to create expressive paintings that are full of energy, colour, and texture. Painting with a palette knife can be exciting and fun.
First, we will start by doing an underpainting, which is the first layer of paint on the canvas. This will help get the composition worked out before applying more paint with a palette knife. We will learn more about colour mixing as well as applying the paint to the canvas. We will be working with fall colours.

Pre-requisites: experience working with oils or acrylics
Please note, this is an in-studio program.
