3-DAY WORKSHOP WITH ARTIST
MARC HANSON
“Painting Landscapes in Acrylics For Oil Painters”
November 18 - 20, 2026
Wednesday - Friday, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm
$550 for Museum members / $625 for Non-members
Minimum 8 / Maximum 16 students
The Booth Art Academy (TRC Building)
1 North Gilmer Street
Cartersville, GA 30120
PH: 770.387.1553
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This class is primarily for painters who want to try out acrylics as an alternative to oil paints. It would be most beneficial if you have painting experience in either oil or acrylic, and are just looking for some guidance with the acrylic medium.
If you’ve ever thought about working with acrylics as an alternative to oil paints, this workshop will dive deep into how that might be an option for your work. After many years of painting with oil paints, I have a few things to share about making acrylics part of your arsenal. I’ve battled acrylics, experimented with them, read about technique and materials, practiced tirelessly, been frustrated by them often, and succeeded in conquering them once in a while, over the last 10 years. I now use acrylics for about 90% of my work.
In the workshop we will cover the paint, mediums and supplies for both studio and plein air work, the ‘whys’ and ‘why maybe nots’ of technique and methods for working with fast drying acrylics, and how to adapt to that if you are used to paint taking forever to dry!
Each morning will begin with a Q&A about anything acrylic, followed by an instructional demo period, and then a student work period in the afternoon. Students will work from their own photos and/or field studies on substrates that are up to 30” maximum length or height. The supply list will go into more detail about what’s needed for the workshop.
