Beginner Paint Pouring Art Class - $85
The Arts Centre, Christchurch and Left Bank Art Gallery, Greymouth
Have you ever heard of Paint Pouring? It’s basically creating art by pouring paint onto a canvas. However, it is not that simple! In this class I will show you how to create your own paint pouring medium you add to the paint in order for it to flow the way it should when you create a paint pour artwork.
There are also different ways in which you can pour the paint. Each way creates a different effect. This is a 2.5 hour art class.
A demonstration will be given showing a few different techniques that you can apply to your canvas for different effects. You will receive your own canvas and materials you need to create your mixture ready to pour. This class will get messy so wear old clothes and bring disposable gloves if you prefer to work that way. It’s a great way to meet new friends with a common interest.
Materials: everything is supplied, however, if you would prefer to bring gloves and an apron feel free to do that.
This is perfect for beginners who don’t know how to paint. Anyone can do it at any age Adults and children are welcome in this art class.
It’s a messy process but in the end you will walk away with a beautiful, colorful painting you created in class ready to hang on your wall once back home. You will also know how to mix your own pouring medium and will reduce costs greatly.
It is a fun way to explore your creative side and to meet new people so why not give it a go!
The class which includes tuition and all art materials costs only $85. Seats are limited so payment in advance is required to secure your seat on the day.
