Learn how to extend your paint by as much as 70% and create any desired texture and effect. Did you know Golden acrylic gels, mediums and pastes are great adhesives for mixed media work?

 

This lecture/demo will also help to demystify pigments. We will compare the slow drying OPEN line with Heavy Body paints. You will learn about controlling drying time, as well as techniques associated with oils, such as wet-into-wet and glazing.

About Stephanie Navon-Jacobson: 

As an artist, I am always observing the world around me. Whether floral, landscape, animal, or figure, abstract or realistic, my images always go back to nature. I am first and foremost a printmaker, although I work in other mediums, too. I am a printmaker who paints, rather than a painter who prints.

I was originally attracted to printmaking in college. I loved the studio community a

spect as well as the various techniques. I like to experiment with various techniques. The possibilities seem endless. I also like the element of surprise each time you pull a print.

It is so satisfying to work with people who are new to printmaking or to teach experienced artists a new technique and watch their enthusiasm as they ‘get bit by the printmaking bug.’ Printmaking is such a versatile medium. It can stand alone or be incorporated with other mediums such as oil or watercolor. I encourage my students to add printmaking to their artistic arsenal and incorporate it with their other artistic endeavors.
