Sometimes I like for my vintage paintings to look as if they came from a memory - the faded past. In this workshop participants will receive a colorbook of 8 images of villages. Instructor will lead participants in the new painting style of “vintage saturation” on black and white photocopies.
Also the participants will learn the fool-proof way to mount painted paper to cardstock.
At the end of the day, the participant will have a nice full colorbook of richly painted images and a arsenal of new techniques.
This fun technique debuts at Artfest 2012 - and has not been taught anywhere else.
