Pour Painting: Multiple Canvases
Adult Classes | Available
Learn how to pour on multiple smaller canvases to create an overall esthetic piece. Demonstrations will show students how to manipulate the pour medium, expanding your skills and knowledge. For the first class, you will simultaneously pour on three long canvases. In the second week, you will expand your skillset to pour four canvases at once, and in the last two weeks, you will pour four or more canvases at once. This class is for students with prior pour experience.

For the first class, please bring 4” x 12” pack of canvases. You need to be dressed appropriately with closed-toed shoes and an apron as this can be a messy process.
Keep in mind, you may need more canvases depending on how you work. These are canvas sizes for class, which are sold in packs:
4” x 12” (this is on canvas); you can purchase at Michael’s online
6” x 23” (this is on cradled wood); you can purchase at Michael’s online

For the first class, purchase a few colors and white. I recommend purchasing Golden Fluid (color is your choice), Master’s Touch (color is your choice), and Amsterdam (color is your choice), and white (brand is your choice). After the first class, you can decide on other colors or brands you might want to use. Other brands suggested are M. Graham, and NOVA.
