“What Would You Create?” Fabric Staining Set with Sari Shryack
“What Would You Create?” Fabric Staining Set with Sari Shryack
Less coloring inside the lines. More letting color run wild. The Fabric Staining Set invites you to embrace movement, flow, and happy accidents. Acrylic Ink and Flow Aid work together to create dreamy washes, organic blends, and color-soaked effects that feel as spontaneous as they look.
In this project, you’ll use Acrylic Ink and Flow Aid Additive to create color that blooms, spreads, and moves across fabric. Layer it. Guide it. Let it surprise you. No two marks will land quite the same way, and that’s the whole point. Don’t fight the flow. Follow it.
Materials
Liquitex Acrylic Ink (30ml): Muted Pink, Muted Turquoise, Yellow Oxide
Measurement tool (1/4 teaspoon)
Shallow Dish
Canvas Bag
Paper Towels
Scrap Paper
Water Container
OPTIONAL: Spray bottle for Flow Aid application, and brushes

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to register in advance?
Yes—most events require registration to reserve your spot. Free demos with limited space can fill up quickly, so we recommend signing up early.
What’s included in a paid vs free event?
Paid events may include hands-on instruction, materials, and exclusive product offers. The details will be listed on the event page.
Free events may include a short, informative session led by an artist—perfect for picking up techniques, learning about materials, and sparking inspiration. You’re welcome to paint along, but it’s not required.
Will I get a recording if I miss an online event?
No. These demos are live-only. If recorded, the footage is gifted to the artist and not shared publicly.
Can I attend an online event if I don’t live in BC?
Yes! Our online events are open to artists across Canada and beyond.
Where are events held?
We host events both in-store at select Opus locations and online via Zoom or other platforms. The location and format will always be clearly stated.
I registered but didn’t receive a confirmation email. What should I do?
Check your junk or spam folders first. If you’re still unsure, email Pamela Mark at pmark@opusartsupplies.com to confirm your registration.
What’s the difference between free and paid events?
Free events are short, demo-based sessions led by professional artists—great for inspiration and learning.
Paid events offer deeper, hands-on instruction with more time, materials, or exclusive access. They’re ideal for artists looking to grow their skills.
Some paid events are free or discounted for Artist and Creative Tier Members.
Is it okay to ask questions during the demo?
Absolutely. Use the community chat to ask demo-related questions. Our host will relay them to the artist as time allows.
When will I be let in from the Zoom waiting room?
We open the room right at the start time. Arrive a couple of minutes early to avoid delays.
How can I apply to be a demo artist?
We love connecting with artists who teach and inspire. Apply here to share your skills in an upcoming demo.
