Fresh Paint: Lecture and Demo of New Golden Acrylic Paints, Gels and Digital Grounds

Instructor: Phil Garrett

Explore a multitude of new surfaces for painting and collage created with Golden’s Glass Bead Gel, Translucent Molding Pastes, Fiber Paste (paper in a jar), Crackle Paste, and more.  Learn mixed media application and layering effects for drawing and painting, including using unique metallic paints, stencils, etc.

You will learn how to use digital grounds that allow you to transfer your digital images onto a multitude of flat surfaces: non-porous papers, acetate, acrylic skins, even aluminum foil. We will cover some of the technical challenges of working with inkjet printers and explore ideas for incorporating these images in paintings and works on paper.

The lecture will feature the New Golden OPEN Acrylics and their use. These paints have an extended working time that can give painters much more control of blending and overall manipulation to achieve wonderful controlled effects.
A packet of literature and free samples of paint and gels will be available for all who attend.
