Acrylic Painting Class - The Art of Monochromatics (Two Parts: March 27 & April 3, 7:15PM) / Curso de Pintura Acrilica - El Arte Monocromatico (part 2)

This two-part course will be both a great introductory lesson into painting with acrylics as well as a deeper dive into tones, hues, and shading. By using a monochromatic paint palette, we will be creating our own unique piece of art while also getting a learning lesson on how to mix and create different hues to highlight and create depth in art.

Este curso de dos partes es una buena introduccion a como crear en pintura acrilica y tambien un taller en como manejar los conceptos de tonos y sombreado. Al usar el proyecto de una pieza monocromatica, estaremos creando piezas unicas de arte y aprendiendo como mezclar colores, formar tu paleta, y crear profundidad.
