Workshop Description
This workshop will open your eyes to new mixed media techniques, as well as introduce you to paints and mediumsthat are truly unique to Pébéo.

Pébéo’s Fantasy Paints, are oil-based alkyd colours* that self-manipulate to give a variety of effects, such as honeycomb and hammered finishes. In this workshop, we will work with the entire Mixed Media by Pébéo program lines, including a variety of texture and effect mediums, and resins.

Interested in resins and adding the ‘glass look’ to your work,but not sure how to do it? This workshop will demystify the process by introducing you
to the different types of resin and their various applications, as well as show you techniques and tips for successfulresults.

We will also explore the many effects possible by combining resins, other texture mediums, and the incredibly fascinatingMoon, Prisme, and Vitrail paints. Discover the infinite possibilities of creation and learn how to incorporate these products into your own mixed mediawork.

**These oil-based paints are suspended in solvent.
If you have sensitivities to solvents, please contact me with any
questions you may have.

Day One:
The class begins on Saturday, with an introduction to the
range of exciting products that Pébéo has available for mixed
media artists. The attendees will prepare surfaces with
acrylic paints, texture mediums, mirror effect leaf, and
collage that will be left overnight to dry for the next day.

Day Two:
On Sunday, we will explore the spectacular properties of the
self-manipulating oil-based alkyd Fantasy Paints, relief making resin, and the glass-effect of the pouring resin. Each attendee will finish with a set of three completed projects. Artwork will be left to dry overnight, and can be picked-upthe following day.

**Students are asked to bring materials for collage, such as photos, decorative paper, and/or small objects such as feathers, beads, or trinkets.
