Details: In October, let’s bring our knives out and practice our Palette Knife skill set with Acrylics and a great moving water reference. If you’d like to add this skill to your painting toolbox, join us on two Fridays in October for palette knife. Mountains and smooth lake water is in second class on Oct 30. Come to both or attend the one of your choice. Adding texture and creating interest will be our focus for using our palette knives to paint a scene similar to the one shown.
