This is a hands-on workshop in materials and techniques with artist Evan Woodruffe for anyone aged 15+.

Fluid acrylics are the most versatile artists’ colour on the planet! They are perfectly suited for wide areas and for detail. They can be washed, bled, dripped, applied with brush, dip pen, marker, airbrush, and with pipette. Fluid acrylics are easily mixed with acrylic mediums to radically alter viscosity, and can be applied to wood, metal, canvas, paper, plastic and glass.

This workshop shows how fluid acrylics can expand your painting vocabulary, either alone or in tandem with your existing materials, through exercises using a range of different surfaces and various tools for application.

Evan Woodruffe is well respected for his indepth technical knowledge, with over 25 years’ experience of professionally researching artists’ materials. Evan has a MFA (1st Class Honours) from Elam, and an extensive exhibition and award history. Evan’s current project the world is porous will be showing in the Tauranga Art Gallery the atrium.
