Event Details

Learn painting practicalities while developing your personal imagery, creativity, and approach to painting. Each week I will demonstrate one or two of a variety of techniques; brushwork, texture, and pattern, mark-making, glazing, mediums, stenciling, and more. There will be Q and A time as well as constructive encouraging critiques. Students will have a portion of the time to work on their paintings during the class, though a lot of the time to paint will be on your own, between classes, using what you’ve learned during the session. Together we will create a painting community that offers support and artistic growth during this time of isolation. ENROLL HERE
