In this workshop, you will learn to use a palette knife to create an entire painting and to create effects and techniques that you wouldn’t be able to do with a brush.  You might know the palette knife as a tool for mixing paint on a palette, but it can do so much more than that! Both oil and acrylic paint can be used for palette knife painting. With this style of painting you can achieve a wide array of textures, sharp lines, broad sweeping strokes of impasto and painting on top of wet layers without the paint blending together. A palette knife really allows you to put layers of paint together in a distinct way compared to a brush. Color is another area where palette knife painting really shines.


Instruction will run from 9am-4pm with a lunch break midday. Instruction will be live and interactive on Zoom. Students will be asked to set up zoom camera so as to show their painting in progress so Rob can monitor their progress and provide individual instruction throughout the day.
