Art League Meeting and Golden Demo

The next Greenville Art League will feature artist Justin Burns, representing Golden Paints.

GOLDEN Lecture Demo

The GOLDEN Acrylics FREE lecture and demonstration is a fun informative, educational and fast-paced presentation of all the products GOLDEN has to offer. The Lecture covers information about the different types of acrylic paints, mediums, gels, pastes and grounds. The lecture will also cover a technical review of acrylics and their varied application possibilities, techniques in working with mixed media, meeting printmaking, and the review of GOLDEN’s newest products including OPEN acrylics, High Flow acrylics and QoR watercolor. This lecture will hopefully give you some new insights that can be added to your creative process. All participants will receive a free information packet, hand painted color charts and a bag of free GOLDEN product samples to take home.

Art Challenge

Also, Art League members and visitors are invited to bring artwork for the Art Challenge. Everyone present will be invited to view the works and vote for their favorite. The artist whose work is voted the favorite will be declared Artist Of The Month and will receive a certificate.

The theme for the monthly Art Challenge will be “Night Vision.” While the previous two challenges were meant to get us trying new techniques, “Night Vision” is meant to get us approaching our work from a different perspective.

Create a piece that is about, informed by, or suggests NIGHT. Whether you paint landscapes, still life, portraits, abstracts, sculpt, assemble, etc. . . consider how things are changed by night. Certainly the light source, but also the activities we do and the items we use are different at night.

Tips:
*Consider the light source carefully. Is it the moon, a light bulb, a candle, the television? Is it strong or soft? Does it light your subject fully or partially?
*Spend time just observing the effect of your chosen light source on different objects.
