NEW Zoom acrylic lecture/demo series beginning in 2021!
This lecture/demo series is an excellent introduction to acrylic for beginners and of course all experience levels are welcome!
These monthly demo’s will focus on either a simple step-by-step (start to finish) painting study or will take a deep dive into a specific acrylic painting technique.
You will receive a complete list of supplies and follow along instructions after registering. To gain max value from this event I recommend watching the demo live, asking questions in the Zoom chat, and then take your time to leisurely create your own painting afterwards. The recording will be posted to YouTube following the demonstration (usually takes about 1 day to post) and you will receive an e-mail with the link to access the video. Reference this video as many times as you like when you jump into your own painting!
Each lecture/demo is $19.99
(All registration is through Eventbrite)
1st Saturday of the month / 1.5 hours
12:00 – 1:30 (PST)
2:00 – 3:30 (CT)
3:00 – 4:30 (EST)
This is an exciting opportunity to continue to learn, reconnect with me and your student community, and (of course) be motivated to pick up the brush!
- You don’t need to attend the demo to access these goodies! Once the demo has passed you can always purchase the recorded video link, materials list and follow along instructions for $19.99.
- Please note that all lecture/demo YouTube videos are unlisted (this means that you must have the link to access it – fancy huh?)
- No refunds, if you purchased a ticket to the demo and are unable to make it you will still receive the materials list, instructions and recorded video link – yay!
I’m still playing with the 2021 line-up, however you can still see a sneak peek of what’s on the horizon! Make sure that I’ve got your e-mail to let you know when upcoming lecture/demo registration is posted and goes live!
