WORKSHOP SCHEDULE




Due to their impact on my own studio time and other related activities, I am attempting to limit future workshops to four per year. Information related to each workshop will be posted on this page and sent to artists on my mailing list when specifics are resolved.

If you would like to be placed on a mailing list to receive notification of current and future workshops by Charles Harrington or if you would like to schedule a workshop in your area,    e-mail Charles at

CUYAHOGA VALLEY ART CENTER

Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio
Acrylics the Watercolor Way
August 4 - 7, 2008

This workshop will focus on the use of acrylics to gain the technical advantages offered by this versatile medium while retaining the aesthetic of traditional media such as watercolor and oils.

The acrylic techniques presented can result in a finished painting that the causal observer can't distinguish from watercolor; or they can result in a happy combination of transparent, translucent, and opaque applications possible only with acrylics. This versatility will convince you that acrylics are both attractive and practical as a painting medium applied to a variety of surfaces, including paper, canvas, and gesso primed panels.

Demonstrations will focus on techniques and issues presented in Charles' North Light book and teaching video (DVD), Acrylics: The Watercolor Alternative, which was North Light Book Club's selection of the month in September 2005.
