Ready to shake up your creative routine? This hands-on painting class invites you to dive into color, texture, and experimentation. Designed for novice to intermediate painters, each session will guide you through a series of smaller projects that build confidence.
We’ll explore core painting principles, then push beyond them — layering acrylics with unexpected materials, experimenting with drips, texture, and mixed media techniques that bring energy and movement to your work.
Whether you join for one four-week session or both, you’ll leave with a collection of expressive pieces, new techniques under your belt, and a sense of community that keeps you inspired long after class ends.
