Introdcution to Acrylic Painting

An 8-week painting course for anyone interested in exploring the medium of acrylic paint. Saturdays, June 9 – July 24. 2-5pm.

Through the study of the still life, landscape, portraiture, and the analysis of masterworks, this course will serve as an introduction to the properties and processes unique to acrylic paint. This includes learning to control the quick drying time and translucency inherent to the medium through direct painting methods and indirect approaches such as glazing and scumbling.

Through this course, students will become familiar with techniques for:

  • starting, developing, and finishing a successful acrylic painting
  • placing objects within a picture plane to create purposeful compositions
  • implying the volume and surface of objects using various paint application processes
  • addressing foundational color theory so that we can produce descriptive colors with a painting
  • working responsively with an acrylic surface to avoid the “plastic–looking” surface typically associated with novice acrylic works

Taught by Manifest Drawing Center Coordinator Adam Mysock.

Tuition: $325 (Includes FREE access to all Wednesday Open Figure sessions during the duration of the course)
