Bragg Creek Painters Workshop


One of my simple pleasures in life is playing with a new artistic technique taught by a kind instructor with good friends in a beautiful facility on a wintery afternoon - who could ask for more? January 19th the Bragg Creek Painters hosted a mixed media workshop that fit the bill perfectly.







Marla's demostration piece - love the colour and texture!
Marla Blackwell (above) from Cochrane Arts Central http://cochraneartscentral.blogspot.ca/ did a marvelous job of walking us through a technique of applying tissue to canvases to enhance the texture and appearance of acrylic paintings.
One of the things that I love the most about these workshops is seeing how others use the technique - it is a great way to learn even more, especially what I should have done rather than what I did!
