In this class with instructor Victoria Pierce, students will explore flip cup painting, puddle pour painting, negative space painting, sink strainer pour painting, and painting bottle bottom technique. Surfaces used will include stretch canvas, old albums, rocks, Christmas ornaments, flower pots, wood, and tiles. The class will also learn how to make jewelry with paint skins.
