TUE AM - Intro to Abstract Acrylic Painting with Kristen Ide

In these courses, students will learn new techniques about color and composition, texture with gels and pastes, glazing, and how to finish a painting through class demonstration, instructor critique, and peer interaction. Students will complete paintings as part of the lesson with the class as a whole, following the instructor's step-by-step guidance. You will also be working on 2-3 personal-project paintings throughout the duration of the class that will give you a chance to apply those lessons.

Drawing skills not required. Proficient artists who have taken this class may want to investigate our Intermediate Acrylics class.?
