Texture Painting Workshop with ArtDelight 

Expertise level:  Beginner

Age level:  12+ yrs

About the Workshop

Texture, on any painting is used to add depth, interest, and balance. Texture can be used to create illusions of different textures (feathers, sand, etc.) or it can exist as actual layers that create a feeling or consistency when touched – such as thick paint applied with a palette knife. 

Make the best out of both paper and canvas by learning how to create a wide range of textures to bring your painting alive!

This workshop will be all about using a palette knife to create texture and floral illustrations.

1. How to use a Palette Knife
2. How to create faux texture
3. Difference between paper and canvas

Flow of the session 

1. Introduction to acrylics
2. Introduction to palette knife

4. Dry brushing technique

Materials Required

1. 10*12 inches canvas board or any art paper/Acrylic Paper
2. Flat brush
3. 0 number brush
4. Acrylic paints (Artist-grade)
5. Gesso (Gesso is very similar to white acrylic paint, only thinner. It dries hard, making the surface more stiff. Gesso prepares (or "primes") the surface for painting, making the surface slightly textured and ready to accept acrylic paint. Without gesso, the paint would soak into the weave of the canvas. You can buy Gesso at any art supply store)
