About this Event
Helping Beginners to Get Started
Learn how to get started with acrylic paints and modern-day tools—as well as how to start and finish a painting. Drawing skills not required. All skill levels welcome.
Step-by-Step Guidance
This is a beginner-friendly course and students will receive 1-on-1 guidance and step-by-step instructions. Our art instructors make learning to paint easy, fun, and simple. No prior experience needed as we designed the curriculum for first-time painters to learn from scratch.
Both realism and abstract styles can be explored in this course as the focus is on learning to paint in acrylic and everything that goes along with using acrylic paint.
Students will walk away with 1-2 paintings they create during the class. No drawing experience required. All skill levels welcome.
What You'll Learn:
- Mark Making & Brush Techniques
- Working with Modern Paint Tools
- Color Mixing and Making Colors 'Pop'
- Glazing Techniques
- Using Textures
- How to Finish a Painting
Supplies for Students to Bring:
This is a studio class and students will be using their supplies on the first week.
Simply purchase an Acrylic Student Kit for $65 at the front desk upon check in on Week 1.
