This class is open to anyone interested in painting with acrylics. Whether you are a beginner or have 20 years of experience, the class is designed to meet you where you are and help you grow as a painter. Each week, the instructor will give a brief demonstration on an acrylic painting technique. You can start your paintings by selecting from plenty of examples the instructor will have on hand, or you are more than welcome to bring your own material and have the time and space to work on it. This class is designed to be informative, productive, and reassuring. The instructor has 35 years of experience teaching all levels of painting.
