These class sessions will introduce the student to various methods using acrylics. A demonstration will be given in each class with the participants executing them before moving onto the next technique. The student can then decide the best methods that suit them when creating an image. Personalize instruction will be given to help focus each student’s needs. All levels of skill welcomed.
