Paint, Patina, Fiber, & Gold

Join me for three days of alchemical wonder—this course is for painters, mixed media and fiber artists! Acrylic paints and mediums are the most versatile tools for creating the appearance of rust, copper, and gold on both canvas, paper and panels. Then there is the magic of gold leaf. You will learn how to apply it over both smooth and textured surfaces, seal it and paint it. Gold leaf can also be applied to papers and fabrics and incorporated into your mixed media pages and paintings. I will also share how to create gold leaf skin. If you want to add depth, luster, texture and glow to your art, then this class is for you.
