About the Event
Learn to create with water-soluble oil paint, a high-quality alternative paint that allows artists to work without the harsh solvents used with traditional oil paints, with Craig Reynolds at our Water-Soluble Oil Painting Workshop on Jan. 18 & 19, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. daily at the Pike Road Arts Center (944 Wallahatchie Rd)!
Many artists enjoy the speed that comes from working with water-soluble oil paints. These paints dry considerably faster than traditional oils, though not as fast as acrylics. Artist Craig Reynolds, who started using water-soluble oil paints when he realized he had an allergic reaction to the solvents used in painting with traditional oils, finds that using water-soluble oils en plein air painting allows him to quickly develop finished pieces, which is a plus when "chasing the shadows!”
This two-day workshop is $225 per person, and lunch will be $5 for those who do not bring their own. Learn more or register today: email Arts Council Coordinator Patty Payne at patty@pikeroad.us! A full supply list will be provided upon inquiry.
