Description
It’s not easy mixing green! Some artists find it tricky to create natural greens, but there is so much inspiration when the bright, warm greens appear in spring!
Using acrylics, we will practice mixing greens together and look at different ways artists create colour with paint. Then we’ll paint a small mountain scene that features bright spring greens.
- Suitable for beginners and experienced artists
- Artists should be comfortable with using Zoom as a meeting participant
- Participants will get a summary sheet after the workshop as well as access to the recording for 30 days.
