"Palette Knives Out!" with Sharon Boykiw
Saturday, August 30th
10:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Lunch 12:00-1:00
The Artists Hand Gallery
732 Philadelphia St., Indiana, PA 15701
Explore a different and fun way to paint! This workshop is for beginners and more experienced painters alike, or anyone who's ever been curious about what to do with and how to handle that little instrument.
Working with a palette knife, a clumsy instrument compared to a pencil, can help you to be more free and expressive in your paintings... even if you use a brush.
In the morning, participants will practice and experiment with palette knife painting while working on a still life. After lunch, another painting will be done from a landscape reference photo.
The workshop will be conducted in oil paint, preferred, but participants may use acrylic paints.

About Us
The Indiana Art Association was conceived to share the love of art and encourage and nurture growth together with other artists.
Our Mission:
The purpose of the organization is to promote interest, appreciation and participation in the arts. We aim to stimulate the artistic growth and development of our members as individual artists through encouragement, education, exhibition of work and exchange of ideas. It is our desire to motivate public interest in the arts and function as aesthetically wise consumers and citizens ourselves.

-Antoine De Saint-Exupery
