Painting for Absolute Beginners

This is an intensive 1-day class for anyone who would like to learn the basic theories behind how to paint but doesn’t have the schedule to do a 10-part weekly class, or for those who have painted many years ago and could use a refresher or are self-taught and feel they could use structure or may be missing something. I teach the class in watercolor but the first 75% translates to all colored mediums (acrylic, oil, pastel and to a certain extent colored pencil). There are lectures alternating with practical exercises on color mixing, perspective, composition, light and shadows and more.

There’s no class like it!

There is no materials list, Instructor provides all materials including paint, brushes, paper, water, work panels, palettes. You should bring a sack lunch, the lunch break is short.
