Explore Mixed Media Techniques using Watercolor Tissue Paper & Gel Crayons

Create your own "fun at the beach" mixed media art during this kid-friendly in-person workshop at Plaza Art – Fairfax!

Artist Lanvi T. Nguyen will guide us through creating beach-inspired mixed media artwork with watercolor art tissue paper and gel crayons. We will first “paint” with watercolor art tissue paper to create amazing abstracts, landscapes and forms. Then we will add Faber-Castell Metallic Gel Crayons for elements of texture and realism. Come learn these fun techniques that result in expressive paintings, full of color! You don’t have to let the fun stop in our store…create at home with your own set of gel crayons, water brush and leftover watercolor art tissue paper.*

This activity is great for children ages 5 and up!

*Each attendee will receive a supply pack for use in the class and to take home. Supply pack includes; Watercolor Board, Watercolor Art Tissue Paper Pieces, Gel Crayon Set, Water Brush and activity page. One pack per registered attendee.
