Pointillism Paintings with Ciera

Ages: 16+
Instructor: Ciera West
Date: Saturday, March 7
Time: 12:30 – 3:00 PM
Cost: $40

Explore the art of pointillism, an advanced painting technique that uses small dots and deliberate marks to build form, depth, and color. In this class, students will dive into color theory and mark-making, learning how individual colors interact visually when placed side by side.

Participants will choose their own subject and translate it into a dynamic composition using dots, dabs, and layered marks—developing patience, precision, and personal expression along the way.

What to expect:
Introduction to pointillism and color theory
Guided exploration of mark-making techniques
Freedom to select and interpret your own subject
All materials provided

This class is well-suited for students with some painting experience who are ready to slow down and explore a more intentional, technique-driven approach to painting.

A thoughtful, immersive way to see color—and painting—differently.
