About
An introductory workshop on the unique method of abstract painting, ‘Fluid Art’. Karen Manley will guide you through two different ways of applying fluid art; open pour and cell activation swipe. The technique involves mixing acrylic paint with a thinning medium and then pouring that onto a canvas. Flowing paint and colours are then manipulated into designs. Brushes are rarely used; the paint is instead manipulated with a variety of tools.
