Demonstration By Richard Larkin Interactive Acrylics seascape

We were all very well entertained this evening by Richard Larkin who came to paint a seascape using Interactive Acrylics which are the latest thing in Acrylics allowing the painter to work longer on the painting without the paint drying out simply by spraying the painting unlocks the paint making blending easier  Richard showed us his method of painting using only 4 colours and explained how to use the paint to it's best advantage, we all enjoyed the demonstration enormously

John Heywood Demonstration in Liquitex 7.8.13


Virginia Water Art Society saw a demonstration by John Heywood in Liquitex Acrylic medium and watched while John created the painting from scratch using a pencil sketch that he had done earlier.  John talked us through the process of his painting and gave us tips and hints along the way, his method of creating reflections in water had us all spell bound and we thoroughly enjoyed his demonstration.
