WHIMSICAL SELF PORTRAITS – Create lively, colorful, expressive self-portraits. Draw on creative intuition while discovering your imaginative self. Class is appropriate for all age levels.
ACRYLIC BASICS – Foundation information will be covered including color theory, mixing, and glazing. Create imagery with plenty of room for individual interpretation. Enjoy one-on-one instruction as you learn to create in a nurturing art setting.
MIXED MEDIA – Experience a wide variety of mixed media, layered imagery, use of textures and tools. Learn attributes of colors and mediums when creating an expressive layered painting.
