In art, Impasto is a technique when paint is applied thickly so it stands out from the canvas. You can see and feel the texture, like the raised petals of a sunflower. It makes paintings look more 3D and lively.
Unleash your creativity and bring the bold, joyful beauty of a sunflower to life! In this relaxed and fun painting class, Shelly Matthews with Art on the Roof will guide you step-by-step as you create a stunning 10x10 sunflower impasto painting on canvas.
Using acrylic paint and a palette knife, you’ll learn simple techniques to build texture and dimension—while choosing your own color palette to make the piece uniquely yours. No experience is necessary; beginners and seasoned painters alike are welcome.
All supplies are included, so just come ready to paint, relax, and enjoy a creative evening inspired by everyone’s favorite flower.
