Workshop for Utrecht Art Supplies Miami

A New Age Dawns for Acrylic Painting!

Atelier Interactive is the only acrylic that permits an artist to expand their gamut of techniques! To
continue painting wet-in-wet, simply use a fine mist water spray – even after paint layers become touch dry. To over paint, simply let the paint set-up as you normally would. There is no need to have a ton of different style paints. One paint does it all . . . Atelier Interactive! Bring your preferred brushes, water basin, palette and preferred surface.
