Introducing the Masters Class

Posted in art class, expressionism, Still Life, tagged expressionism, Masters Class, still life on January 13, 2020| Leave a Comment »

We have tons of fun with Paint Parties but some people have asked to take it a step above…in other words, they want to learn more rather than just copy the follow along paint party image. With that in mind we are introducing the Masters Class. Masters Class will provide more detailed information and teach techniques for those who want to not only paint but improve their skills. In our first session we will learn to develop a painting from a live set-up to create an Expressive Still Life. The set-up will include fruits and flowers….according to what is available at the time. (These photos show some of what we may have that day.) Click here to register and join us on Sunday afternoon, February 23rd from 1-5 pm to take your art to the next level.
