Event Description

March 20 and 21,  from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day

The workshop, led by local artist, Diane Dean (https://www.dianedean.com) will focus on painting with heavy-bodied acrylics and palette knives in a loose style.   The workshop will include several demos using various techniques, acrylic paint formulas, and a variety of sizes of palette knives.  Options for students will be both impressionistic and abstract.  Students will work on stretched canvas and will find that, though painting with a palette knife is challenging, it can be a rewarding approach to paint application. When applied, the colors make an immediate impact due to their purity. Many artists abandon paint brushes altogether in favor of the semi-flexible palette knife to create paintings that are full of rich texture and sweeping blends of color.

Materials supplied. Art Place, 2021 Asheville Highway, Hendersonville. 

Class fee includes palette knives and a variety of acrylic paint.  Students must provide their own small canvas.  The instructor purchases large canvas in bulk.  Cost will be provided when canvas are ordered.  There is currently a shortage of larger stretched canvas and prices vary.  Current Price for 36" x  36" 1-1/2 gallery wrap canvas at bulk price is $57/each.
