Get a sneak peek at the mediums and paints you can experiment with in the hands-on workshop:
A-Z Textures with Patti Mollica, September 29, 2018.
This lecture/demo will explore the vast potential of Golden gels, mediums, and pastes which can be used for traditional painting techniques, printing, and collage (they are great adhesives for mixed media).
Roy will help to demystify pigments, tints and hues, and extend your paint by as much as 70%. You will learn how to control drying time with the OPEN line and create any desired texture or effect with Heavy Body paints. Roy will demonstrate techniques associated with oils, such as wet-into-wet and glazing. He will also introduce QoR (pronounced “core”) the first major improvement to watercolors in 150 years!
All participants receive a free packet of Golden samples.

Leeanna Chipana began her art studies at the Stevenson Academy of Fine Arts in Oyster Bay, NY in 2004 where she studied under painter and illustrator Attila Hejja. While working as his personal assistant Leeanna studied figure painting with Mr. Hejja. After Mr. Hejja’s sudden death in the Summer of 2007, Leeanna decided to devote her life to pursuing her own art studies more rigorously and dedicate herself to teaching traditional painting and drawing. She started by attending the New York Art Students League where she studied figure painting for two years with artist Nelson Shanks. She went on to continue her studies under full scholarship with Robert Armetta of the Long Island Academy of Fine Art at the Atelier Armetta program located in Glen Cove, NY. She attended the Water Street Atelier where she was enrolled in a full-time program dedicated to classical drawing and painting under artist Jacob Collins. Her work ranges from landscapes to still-life and portraits from life.
Leeanna continued her training at the Grand Central Atelier in New York in their full-time core program – the Water Street Atelier with Jacob Collins. She was a recipient of the John F. and Anna Lee Stacey Grant, a Hudson River Fellow and was awarded a scholarship to attend the New York Academy of Art where she earned her MFA in figure painting. She was a recipient of the John F. and Anna Lee Stacey Grant, a Hudson River Fellow and was awarded one of the highest scholarships offered to attend the academy. After her graduation last Spring, her work was shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Wausau, Wisconsin and the Zhou B. Arts center in Chicago. She uses her traditional background to focus on the theme of indigenous portraits in landscapes as a way to explore her own mixed Indigenous-Peruvian heritage.
