NEON WINGS!
A One-Day Acrylic Painting Workshop With Visiting Artist, Gigi Chen
When: Saturday, September 13th, 10am-5pm
Where: Manor Mill Gallery
Manor Mill Gallery is thrilled to host New York City-based acrylic painter, Gigi Chen, as our visiting artist of 2025! She will be hosting a full-day acrylic painting workshop titled "Neon Wings!" This class is for appropriate for beginner, intermediate, and advanced acrylic painters.
Gigi will also have her artwork displayed in our gallery within our upcoming "From the Forest" exhibit during this workshop. To stick to the exhibit's theme, and relate to her personal artwork, this one-day workshop will have a focus on birds and neon lighting, something Gigi has mastered with acrylics! Reference photo(s) will be provided, but registrants are also welcomed to bring their own as well. Consider signing up with a friend!

A Message From the Artist:
Gigi states, "I love dark and mysterious paintings. In this class, I shall demonstrate how adding an unusual light source can really change the feel of a scene. The class will work on a painting together from a provided reference photo. I will show step by step how to render a realistic scene and how to add a neon-glow to a painting. While this workshop can be for intermediate to advanced level artists, I do encourage beginners to join too, as I will also walk through the fundamentals of acrylic techniques such as how to handle the paint, brush techniques, mixing colors, the use of a wet palette as well as how to incorporate mediums to slowly layer their paint and achieve a realistic look. I look forward to seeing you at Manor Mill this September for Neon Wings!
