You are about to fall in love with acrylic gouache and a very different way of approaching painting! Acrylic Gouache is a versatile medium that is easy to set up and take into the field. You only need water for thinning and clean up. How delightful is that? Basic introductory information about how to best use this medium will be covered. Students will be guided through exercises to gain competence in Suzette’s technique and methods of painting florals and gardens. Studies will be done on paper. The results are surprisingly engaging. Methods translate well to watercolor and acrylic painting. Join us to take risks, and explore the wow of this under appreciated medium.

Students can bring photo references of their summer gardens or Suzette will provide from floral arrangements and reference photos if you don't have one.
