Acrylic Mixed Media (Intermediate) with Justina Smith

Acrylic Mixed Media by Justina Smith:

I’ll be taking participants through the steps I use in my own painting process to show them how to incorporate the use of patterned papers, tissue-like papers, and colored acrylic inks into their own painting process. The use of papers and inks in addition to the paint can add a wonderful variety of detail, depth and interest to a painting. Mixing the mediums of paper, paint and ink can help solve problems of where and when to add detail and how much, and can easily add interest to large areas of negative space that might otherwise seem daunting and problematic. Adding paper and acrylic ink to a painting can also help ‘free up’ the participants painting style if they feel it needs a little loosening up. This workshop is perfect for artists willing to experiment and try new things.

This particular approach to painting is very layered, so participants will have time to think of what their approach might be in each layer. This process lends itself well to both careful planning and spontaneity.
