Gouache on Black Paper - Linda MacAulay (SOLD OUT)
About
Learn how to paint in gouache on black paper.Gouache is a pigment rich, opaque medium that dries quickly to a matte finish and has ability to be reactivated with water. With a small kit you can paint almost anywhere.
You will learn how to use the medium and then paint a number of fast small paintings with the aim of building the skills necessary to create your own paintings on location.
Each participant will be provided with the use of brushes and all materials during the workshop so it is a great opportunity to come along and try it out. You will also get a black sketchbook to keep.
We will start the workshop in the gallery learning techniques and then cross the road to paint on location at the river in the afternoon.
Participants will learn about :
How painting the light values only, whilst reserving the black of the surface, allows you to quickly capture fleeting light.
