Description
The Vancouver Visual Art Foundation invites you to get creative with our Art Classes. We feature talented artists from our incredible Art Vancouver to teach their skills and passions.
Introduction to Resin Art
Join an in-person workshop that combines old and new techniques to create handmade mixed media art. You’ll learn how to lay down images, apply spray paint, incorporate different materials, and learn not to be afraid of a torch.
We will go over materials, techniques, and safety precautions. Finally, you’ll have the opportunity to try out everything you’ve learned in a hands-on session with plenty of time to experiment.
This mixed media workshop is perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike.
