Join Nathalie for a full day and explore all kinds of different Acrylic Media – from Dumbledore to Merlin, from Acrylic Paints to Acrylic Inks, from String Gel to Pouring Medium, from Modeling Paste to Stucco and other fun stuff.
Learn their magic– and put an end to mystery on how to use these amazing helpers in your Mixed Media and/or Art Journaling projects.
Learn not only how to use Acrylic Media and when to use them but also put your own spell into 3 abstract canvases during the class. You will surely have as much fun waving your new magic acrylic wand as Nathalie!
Required Supplies
Acrylic Paints (6-8 colors including black – soft and/or heavy body) – Nathalie prefers Liquitex but others are just fine
