This acrylic painting workshop is for students who want to expand their knowledge of how
to work with acrylics. During the five days, Elin will give each student a vast amount of knowledge and techniques in painting creatively. Every day will open student's eyes to different approaches for starting work, adding to work, and thinking "outside the box" in approaching traditional subjects. This workshop will present ways of working with acrylics that will open doors to new ways of expression for every student. Students will bring their own supplies, yet this workshop will provide many additional unique materials to use in creating works of art.
