Nov 14 | Crash Course 2: Water-based Paints, EXTENDED

Saturday, August 15th, 11 am - 1 pm EST (NYC time)

The first part of this Crash Course ended feeling like there was so much more to talk about. We decided to extend this subject and only focus on three binders: acrylic paint, egg tempera, distemper (animal glue).

The goal of this class is to make various acrylic mediums, demonstrate how to prepare the egg yolk, and point out the advantages of using animal glue distemper.

Leave this class with a better understanding of why you might want to choose water-based paints for your practice.

Crash Courses are demonstration-based discussions (not hands-on) that aim to demystify the use of pigments and raw materials. Each Crash Course focuses on a specific paint application. We explain how different types of pigments behave in each recipe. Crash Courses do not have to be taken in order. No prior experience with pigments is necessary. CRASH COURSES ARE OFFERED IN PERSON AND ON ZOOM. If you are signing up, be careful to choose the appropriate one for you.
