Ingrid Christensen – The Multi-Layer Portrait in Quick-Dry Paint (Online); Friday, July 18, 2025

Date: Friday, July 18, 2025
Time: 2:00-3:30PM Pacific Time/5:00-6:30 PM Eastern Time/10:00-11:30 PM London Time
Medium: Fast-drying mediums such as acrylics, gouache, and Flashe (Ingrid will demonstrate in Flashe)

This 1.5-hour demo introduces an intuitive, playful approach to building portraits in layers using fast-drying mediums such as acrylics, gouache, and Flashe.

Ingrid will demonstrate techniques with Flashe, a vinyl emulsion paint that dries almost instantly— making soft edges and wet-in-wet blending nearly impossible. By working with, rather than against, these limitations, she’ll share strategies for creating convincing form while embracing the medium’s crisp, hard-edged qualities as an appealing feature, not a flaw.
