Thursdays , 9:30-12:00 pm
Acrylic paint is a wonderful medium, equally at home in fine art and personal journals. You can paint on paper, canvas or wood. Whether you prefer realistic painting or experimental abstracts this is the class for you. Think you can’t draw? You’ll learn to use color, shape, value, and size to express yourself. In this class you can practice applying paint that will allow your drawings to come to life. You really only need five colors of acrylic paint, some gesso, and painting surfaces you may already have in the house. You’ll also learn how to make do-it-yourself stencils and stamps to create exciting papers for collage work. Let this class be the beginning of a journey in painting that can take you wherever you want to go.
Your Zoom invitation will be emailed to you the day before your class. This class is NOT RECORDED.
