31. Acrylic Painting Classes at Michael's

Other posts about my time working with Grumbacher and Michael's can be found at posts 52, 46, 34, 33, 32 and 31 and on Bob's website here.

I have been asked by Chartpak, Inc. to be their Grumbacher representative and teach beginning acrylic painting classes beginning in August, 2010 at Michael's in Greensburg, PA, Monroeville PA, and in Tarentum, PA at The Village at Pittsburgh MillsGrumbacher is the maker of fine artist products including Academy line of acrylic paints.  Unlike oil paints, which use turpentine or mineral spirits as a solvent, acrylics are mixed with water and are much less messy.  I am looking forward to this opportunity to teach art again (I used to teach an Bill Alexander oil painting class for JoAnn's a few years ago).  We will begin with a class on painting a simple landscape and a second class painting flowers.  Check back here for dates, times and more information in the coming weeks!
