There are endless ideas for the outcome of your artwork as each one of you will have a different idea in mind of what you want to create. As with the Aurora Borealis, no two will EVER be the same.

Basic techniques for resin manipulation will be demonstrated by your Creative Coach and you will be given ample time and product to practice these prior to doing your final pour on your chosen substrate so that alleviates the pressure of not being sure how things will go. This way you can test your colour combination choices as well as have the opportunity to see how resin flows and blends etc. In this workshop, you will be using the "swipe technique" with interference mica powders to create the stunning Aurora Borealis on your piece. Your Creative Coach BerylAnne will provide you with demonstrations and direction on how to prep, mix resin (huge variety of various colour pastes, alcohol ink, mica powders, etc. will be available for you to choose from); move resin and how to control it to give you a desired result. There will be heat guns and also fire torches provided for you to use during the workshop. Create cells, lacing and stunning colour variations with all the variety of supplies on hand. You will practice on black canvas panels beforehand and then when you feel comfortable, you will proceed to your final project.

*PLEASE NOTE: Resin requires a minimum of 12 hours to cure so you won't be able to take your project home with you the same day.

This is a teaching workshop where previous experience is definitely an asset but not mandatory. This workshop is considered an intermediate level and you must be 14+ and accompanied by an adult or 18 to attend. Dress accordingly as resin is impossible to remove once on your clothes (aprons and gloves are provided).

Refreshments such as pop, water, coffee & tea and a little snack are included but feel free to bring your own if you want.

Lower level studio location so stairs are involved.

All supplies are included in the cost of the workshop.

Preferred registration is by etransfer to bWVtb3JpZXNhcmVtYWRlIHwgZ21haWwgISBjb20= or through our ticketing agent, Eventbrite
