Join visual artist and illustrator Linda Montgomery for an artist talk and demonstration. She will help you find the best paint viscosities and materials for your inspired artwork. Linda will compare and contrast acrylic soft body, heavy body, ink, acrylic markers, fluid, and acrylic gouache ranges so you can choose what stirs your creativity the most.
Additionally, Linda will share how acrylic fluid, gel, and effect mediums can alter the original characteristics of each range, allowing you to customize your paint to fit your aesthetic needs and unique expression. This acrylic demo is suitable for everyone from beginners to experienced acrylic painters and aims to inspire you to “Find Your Flow” and discover what lights you up!
