All levels.  The acrylic medium can provide a new dimension in creative expression, allowing flexibility and the chance to make immediate revisions. California artist Marcia Burtt will share her passion for the medium and valuable tips that can make painting in acrylic easy.  During this 4-day workshop Marcia will offer demonstrations and individual critiques, helping you improve your skills and find your individual voice.  Please bring a couple of simple photographs to work from in case of rain.
