Painting Workshop
Saturday's, March 15th & 22nd, 2025
Intermediate oil & acrylic painters can refine their composition awareness, value seeking skills, and become more boldly intentional with brushstrokes to paint more confidently. Each lesson will begin with warm-up exercises to take you out of your comfort zone and release inhibitions to paint more freely. Students will begin a large format painting in the first session that will progress to completion by the end of the third session. A brief demonstration will be offered each class day promptly at 11am to optimize your own painting time after the demo. Three Tuesday’s in October. Each session is 3 hours. Participants provide their own supplies (supply list emailed upon request or registration).
