Oh My Gouache!
A Paint Making Workshop with Artist Megan Victoria
SATURDAY, FEB. 22
(1PM - 3PM)
Learning how to make your own paints can be very rewarding and cost effective. Most commercial paints from an art store dilute their products with added fillers which can jeopardize the vibrancy of its color and compromise the paint's integrity, all while you are being overcharged for a product.
Though it is initially a bit of an investment, paint making a great way to build a more intimate connection with the materials you use regularly as an artist. It also gives you more agency over the characteristics of your paint, all while saving you money in the long run.
Bridge the gap between art and science by joining us for a few hours in the afternoon Feb 22, 1 to 3pm and learn how to make watercolor or gouache from a selection of 6 different nontoxic pigments.
This class is open to adults of all skill levels. Participants will be able to take home a small sample of paint making ingredients and any paints they make for the day.
Supplies Fee: $100/person
