230421 Acrylic: Learn to paint vibrant still life’s with a grid with Hannah Hancock

Art Guild of Tellico Village

Dates: April 21, 2023
Time: 10:00 to 3:00 pm
Location: Chota Classroom A

Prerequisites: None

Contact Information: hannah.zie.hancock@gmail.com

Cost: $60
Class Size: Min 6 Max 15
Sign-up: Submit this registration form or click on the button below.
Deadline: April 7, 2023

Cancellation Policy: Participants may cancel up to 14 days prior to the start of the class for a full refund. There will be no refunds within 14 days of the class unless spot can be filled from wait list. To cancel, fill out the class refund request form

Class Content: Artists see beauty in everyday moments and objects. It may be the eggs on their breakfast plate, a cup of pens on their desk, or even a glass of water at a restaurant; there is beauty in the mundane.
In this class, attendees will create an innovative, fun still life, stylized with color in a way that will increase vibrancy and add life to a regular everyday object. Learn how to choose colors that will make your art pop and how to use the grid method to scale up a reference photo onto canvas! A primed and gridded canvas (16 x 20 inches) will be provided for all attendees.

Please bring a printed image (standard 8.5 x 11) of a(n) everyday object(s) that inspires you!

Supply List:

1. Acrylic / Acrylic Gouache Paints
2. Acrylic Mediums of your choice – Ex. Matte medium, gloss medium, or Gac 100 all to help with the spreadability of your paints. Molding paste or gel mediums will create texture!
3. Brushes suitable for acrylics – for this class I suggest some nicer brushes such as Princeton Aspens (or a synthetic hog hair brush) for those nice crisp lines!
4. A palette, this could be as simple as a paper plate!
5. Of course bring any other supplies you want! I suggest bringing paint pens, crayons, paper, anything that you think will add to you still life! This will be very much painting forward!

Hannah will be providing a 16 x 20 inch primed and grided canvas!

Art Journaling – A Journey in Mixed Media

Art Guild of Tellico Village

Meets every month:

4th Friday, 1 – 4 pm

$5.00 per class

Chota Room A

Art journaling is a mixed media art opportunity. Have fun with others while learning to play in paint, collage, and fun mixed media techniques.

In this class we try new techniques with paints, pens, papers, stencils and other tools. We use an art journal as a place to capture these new techniques so you will be able to refer back to them in the future. The goal is not to create a finished piece of art, but rather have a place to experiment and try new techniques. There is no right or wrong way to do this. We share ideas, paint, talk and relax. This class is for newbies to advanced artists because it will make you happy.

The class supply list:

  • Acrylic paints and brushes
  • Markers and pens of your choice which might include markers, paint pens and gel pens
  • Art journal* with mixed media or acrylic paper (Mixed media paper will work too)
  • Optionally: Stencils, stamps & handmade or scrapbooking papers to cut up
  • Bring water container and paper towels, apron recommended

*We recommend using an art journal as a place to try new things and remember what you have done, but acrylic or mixed media paper will work too. Look for art journals specifically for painting by Canson, Grumbacher, Strathmore etc with the heavier weight paper ( 90# or 140#) which are widely available at major retailers.

Covid protocol: AGTV recommends wearing a face mask when social distancing isn’t possible.

Please RSVP: Text Pam George at 563-940-8169 no later than the day prior to class so she knows how to set up the room

Please email Pam George to join the email list for this fun group: pamelasgeorge@gmail.com .
