Friday
Fabric Paint Party
Lisa Engelbrecht
Surface design gone wild! Explore all sorts of methods for neat backgrounds on fabric. A lot of this adventure will be about getting started and feeling confident in using acrylic media and fabric. It will also be about utilizing your unique art gifts. Maybe a little calligraphy-and definitely calligraphic marks. I will show you many techniques that have worked for me-but then it’s your turn to innovate in your own authentic style. Spontaneity emphasized-and over working will be avoided. I will show you a way to showcase these works of art in a simple elegantly spare book made of canvas
Kit Fee: $5
Supply List:
- Some smooth canvas -I love drill cloth from JoAnn’s-Its $4.99 a yard-( also your art store-but its a bit pricey there) a couple yards would be good-
- Pre cut your canvas into smaller pieces to paint-around 8” by 10” up to 10” by 13” ( I will give you instructions on how to complete the book at home-but you may want to save a bigger piece for the cover)
- Eye dropper or pipette
- A variety of brushes-different sizes
- Small sprayer
- Some acrylic media-what you have is great-but I prefer liquid acrylic inks-like FW,Pearlescent and Liquetex ( you can get these at www.johnnealbooks.com and www.paperinkarts.com)
- 6 well plastic palette or a palette of .your choice ( egg containers are great)
- water container, paper towels or rags, apron
- a bottle of water
Kit Fee Includes: - gesso
