TRIOS: SIMPLE MIX
Technique and media practice:
Using water soluble pencils and blocks, adding acrylic paint.
​
We begin most TRIOS sessions by gesturally sketching our subject, practicing loosening up and drawing expressively. Once our drawing is established we move on to explore our subject using specific medium or combination of mediums.
TRIOS: Simple Mix, is for you, if you enjoy the act of drawing and would like to know how to add acrylic paint without losing your beautiful, expressive drawing marks.
TRIOS: Simple Mix, is designed for those who would like to get more comfortable with using acrylics while mixing media. We start simple, learning the basics of acrylic application specifically when used in combination with water-soluble pencils and blocks, while working on paper. We ease into mixed media, drawing & painting while exploring the human face. While not specifically a portrait class, many portrait basics are covered. You may follow along using a reference image that I provide, or work from your own reference, model or works using a mirror.
Once I have explained my process to develop an interesting under-drawing, I then show you how I add layers of white acrylic to my drawing to create beautiful depth and volume.
