Wildlife & Sporting Art - An Acrylic Painting Workshop
2026-09-10 10:00 - 15:00 (America/Chicago) | The Kelly Fitzpatrick Center for the Arts, 301 Hill Street, Wetumpka, AL, 36092
Join Jared Knox at The Kelly for this illuminating acrylic painting workshop! Using acrylic paint and acrylic mediums students will learn to paint a working field spaniel on point. Jared will share his approach to acrylic layering to help students achieve richer colors and textures in their pieces. Since modern acrylic gels and techniques allow for the best qualities of oil paint with the benefit of acrylic drying time, students will leave with a finished vibrant, textured artwork. Supplies will be provided, however, students are welcome to bring their own supplies as well.

Cost: $150 for Kelly Members OR $175 for Non-members
Class Size: 15 Maximum

Instructor Bio/Portfolio
Jared is an Atlanta-based artist with a passion for the outdoors. His work, most often depicting wildlife, is both powerful and peaceful. Layers of exaggerated acrylic color emit an exciting feeling that mimics a one-on-one experience in front of the depicted subject. Bold brush strokes and palette concepts combined with his desire to achieve a high level of realism offer a unique take on subjects that have been painted for centuries.
