In this workshop you will learn the lost principles of brilliant, luminous, color effects followed by the greatest painters for 5 centuries, from Van Eyck to Van Gogh.  Almost everything you have been taught about how to put your paintings together is surprisingly different from how these master artists constructed their work.  Moreover, with today’s superior paints and mediums, including the newer acrylics, we are able to create effects that would be the envy of all those famous artists.

This workshop is designed for artists with some painting experience in oils, acrylics, or even watercolors.  Acrylic paints are relatively new and how to use them effectively is still a challenge for many artists.  Techniques that are successful when using oil paints or watercolors do not often yield good results when applied to acrylic paints.  This is because the physical and chemical properties of the synthetic acrylic paints are unique.

Learn everything you need to know to master acrylic painting:  Do you have questions about the differences between oils and acrylics; which mediums to use; what quality or brand of paints are best; how to create great texture effects using gel mediums; which brushes are best for acrylics?,…

In this workshop the focus will be on learning the specific properties of acrylics and how you can use them to achieve fantastic results.  Emphasis will be on mastering the materials and skills to help you be a better painter.  You will learn to master the medium and effectively apply glazes, veils, and impasto layers of paint.  Painting demos will also be featured.

Over the last couple of decades, Patricia Katz’s pens, paints, and sketchbooks have traveled with her everywhere she goes. This session is for those of you who dream of doing the same – and long to build artmaking into your own travel adventures.

You’ll learn to:

• Get your sketches off the ground and down on paper when time is limited
• Add splashes of color that bring your sketches to life
• Build your confidence by starting with small vignettes
• Zero in on manageable compositions when there is a world of choice in front of you
• Select portable tools and supplies for sketching on the go
• Keep yourself safe and comfortable on location

This will be a see and try experience, so expect to draw and paint along in ink and watercolor as you explore the ins and outs of travel sketching. The session is designed for those who already have some basic experience with watercolor.

Supply packages are available.
