Description
In this class I’m going to teach you impasto & mixed media painting by depicting the elements of nature in my own way!Impasto, meaning “in paste” is a technique used in painting, where paint is laid on a surface thickly using a knife or a brush. When the thick paint dries, impasto provides texture and the paint appears to be coming out of the canvas.We will create the fire, water and air element using impasto. And the earth element will be created using mixed media to give the aerial view of a forest on earth.In this class, you will learn about:How to paint impastoHow to create realistic textures with knifeHow to create moss for mixed mediaHow to create a mixed media paintingMaterials Reqd:4x4 MDF boards or canvas boardsHeavy body acrylic paintsPalette KnifePlate to mix colorsTissue papersThis class is beginner friendly.
