Learn how to print stunning, deep Prussian blue images in this one day workshop with Patricia Vega. Discover the magic alchemy of cyanotype printing; no camera and no darkroom needed!
Join visual artist Patricia Vega for a hands-on introduction to the fascinating world of cyanotype and create your own unique prints. This historic photographic printing process was developed in the 19th century and uses ultra violet (UV) light to create beautiful, distinctive Prussian blue images on paper, also referred to as sun-print.
Patricia guides participants through the process step by step. Learn the basics of how to make a cyanotype print by mixing chemistry, coating paper, and developing the print using the sun or UV lamp.
Students create a series of 5 × 7-inch cyanotype artworks on watercolour paper using botanicals, natural forms, textures, and other objects. The finished pieces can be enjoyed as small works of art or transformed into unique, handmade greeting cards.
Includes demonstrations, hands-on practice, and individual guidance throughout the process:
How to prepare the cyanotype solution
How to coat paper with cyanotype solution
How to arrange botanicals and other objects to create compositions
How exposure time affects the final image
How to wash and finish cyanotype prints
How to create artwork suitable for handmade cards

Challenge yourself with Sumi-e painting and learn a new art form with award-winning sumi-e artist, Roslyn Levin.
Sumi-e is the century old art of painting using a brush, ink and thin rice-paper or washi. This course is suitable for all levels with the focus on techniques and on the Sumi-e vocabulary of strokes.
The artist depicts the essence of what he or she is trying to portray with as few brushstrokes as possible—simply and elegantly, but with strength in each line or shade.
Sumi-e is a mindfulness meditation. It is a metaphor for our journey through life, a way to grow spiritually, one brushstroke at a time. Join renowned Sumi-e artist Roslyn Levin and learn this beautiful Japanese art form in the heart of downtown Orangeville!
Over the course of six classes, learn how to paint a variety of flora and fauna including those pictured here in the class description.

How to capture the glow and luminescence

Paints & Medium
Tri-Art High Viscosity is built for painters who want a true heavy-body feel, strong chroma, and pronounced stroke retention, and Tri-Art attributes that to very high pigment loading and a finely refined pigment grind; if you like paint that “pulls” like oil and keeps its marks, start by exploring the colours and do two quick swatches per colour, one straight from the tube and one brushed out thin, so you can see each pigment’s natural sheen, transparency, and staining strength before it’s mixed with white or mediums.
Thick, heavy body acrylic for bold texture, knife work, and brushmarks
Load the knife generously, then place and pull once or twice to keep peaks crisp
For bold brush marks, use a stiffer bristle or synthetic “hog” style brush and avoid overworking
Build impasto in layers, letting thicker passages set up before adding more height
If you need more glide for knife work, mix in a small amount of acrylic medium instead of lots of water
Keep a spray bottle nearby to lightly mist your palette so the surface does not skin over
60ml tubes
Made in Canada (since 1994)
Apply Masking Fluid to create a barrier that protects desired white space by blocking watercolor washes.
The bottle includes five different fine-point applicator tips and dries to a transparent caramel color, so you can see it while you work.
The dried fluid is easy to rub off with your fingers or a rubber cement pick-up.
Made with the same pure pigments as Gamblin's Artist Oils'
Also use the same process of mixing, milling, filling, and hand labelling
Formulated with pure pigments, refined safflower oil and marble dust (calcium carbonate)
150ml tube
The surface of paintings made with beeswax mediums will become only as hard as a beeswax candle.
Adding Gamblin Galkyd to Cold Wax Medium/oil colors mix will increase the sheen and flexibility of the paint film.
Use a small amount to make Galkyd Mediums more matte.
Cold Wax Medium contains no oil, so it can be applied as a wax varnish over a dry oil painting.
Sets of 12, 24, 36 and 72 20ml-tubes
For use on paper, board, canvas, wood and stone
Can be thinned easily with water
Short drying time
Original color can last for decades
Excellent quality paint for artists and students
Rheotech achieves qualities previously exclusive to the professional artist arena and is undeniably the best quality paint in its class. Rheotech Acrylics have a creamy, workable consistency. Available in 250ml tubs in a variety of colours. Manufactured in Canada.
The first acrylic colors offered by GOLDEN, Heavy Body paints are known for their exceptionally smooth, buttery consistency. The Heavy Body palette includes the largest assortment of unique pure pigments in a 100% acrylic emulsion available to professional artists. These colors offer excellent permanency and lightfastness. There are no fillers, extenders, opacifiers, toners, or dyes added.
Each Heavy Body color formula reflects the qualities of its pigment. Colors that tolerate a higher pigment load dry to a more opaque, matte finish. Colors that are more reactive and do not allow as much pigment loading tend to have a glossier, more transparent, finish. Because Heavy Body colors contain no matting agents, the gloss of each color will be different.
Equal the intensity of GOLDEN Heavy Body Acrylics but with an even, flowing characteristic useful for dry brush application, fine details, pouring, spraying (particularly when mixed with GOLDEN Airbrush Medium), staining techniques and many others.
Fluids are created by loading an acrylic polymer binder with concentrated levels of quality pigments for a wide selection of permanent and lightfast colors. No fillers or extenders are added to achieve the desired consistency, nor is the fluid quality achieved with additional water. GOLDEN Fluid Acrylics have the same pigment load as the Heavy Body Acrylics, but in a viscosity similar to heavy cream. Fluids allow for smooth flowing applications while retaining color intensity, tinting strength, film integrity, and adhesion.
Fluids blend easily with all acrylic colors, and readily tint gels, mediums, gessoes and grounds. Fluid Acrylics are extremely versatile, and ideal for fine brushwork, glazing, staining, water media techniques and many more. Mix Fluid Acrylics with Airbrush Medium for airbrush application of artwork including textiles.
High Flow is our newest acrylic paint that can go from brush to marker or from dip pen to airbrush and more. From fine lines to broad strokes, High Flow Acrylic has an ink-like consistency that lends itself to a wide range of techniques, including staining, leveling, calligraphy, and mixed media.
Introduced as a replacement for GOLDEN Airbrush Colors in July of 2013, High Flow offers increased durability of dry paint and a larger palette of colors including Iridescent and Fluorescent colors, and more single-pigment colors that match the other GOLDEN color lines.
