Introduction to Acrylics with Becky Ullah
This 2-hour workshop is for complete beginners to painting, those wanting to refresh or try a new media.
We will try different acrylic paints on a variety of surfaces, learning how the paint behaves. We will try different mediums to mix with the acrylics, alongside other practical tips, to get you confident with the basics around acrylic paints.
We will finish by painting your own small canvas, putting all the theory into practice on your own masterpiece! The aim is all about getting you confident in a new medium and giving you all the information you need to get started on your own.
