Acrylic Painting Workshop

Saturdays, July 12 & July 19

Learn the basics of painting with acrylics during this two-day workshop created for beginning and intermediate-level painters. Enjoy afternoons with other bird, wildlife, and nature enthusiasts and get an introduction to exciting acrylic painting techniques while exploring elements of nature and wildlife found at Schlitz Audubon. Students progress at their own pace with instructor guidance. Participants can purchase materials from a provided list or bring their own supplies to class. Canvas will be provided.

Instructor José Acevedo uses art to explore the natural world and finds inspiration in the birds, fish, wildlife, and native plants of the Midwest. Acevedo, who has taught watercolor techniques at the Center, is also a self-taught wood carver. His hand-painted wood carvings of native Wisconsin birds, fish, and wildlife were featured at select galleries and shops, including Schlitz Audubon and Boerner Botanical Gardens.

This program will take place entirely indoors. Participants will receive a supply list after registering. Please bring a bag lunch.
