Edwin Cripps Demonstration 3.11.09

Today Edwin Cripps very kindly stepped in to give us a wonderful demonstration of a night snow scene in acrylics the advertised artist due to paint water in water colour was unable to appear and Edwin was asked if he could help us, despite appearing at the NEC in Birmingham Edwin was able to travel back in order to demonstrate his snow scene. Members of the audience expecting watercolour were initially disappointed but soon found themselves thoroughly entertained by Edwin and enjoyed the informative demonstration of Jo Sonja Acrylics

Dee Cowell Demonstration 1.7.09

Today Dee Cowell was our demonstrator unlike other demonstrations where the artist paints a picture for us , Dee demonstrated the use of different mediums such as textured paste, additives for retarding the drying times of acrylics, additives for thickening and giving texture to acrylics and glazing mediums. She demonstrated how to use these mediums with various paints inks and pastels and how to combine the use of mediums and paints. The demonstration and information she gave use left us all with urge to go home and be creative with our paintings and to be more experimental.
