Acrylic Painting 1W23
Learners will begin with observation and explore composition, color, and value using a live model and still life as a subject. Those with an established painting practice will find ways to infuse your process with new vigor and test the boundaries of your comfort zone. Work on artistic subjects selected by the instructor or continue a work-in-progress with guidance and feedback.
Enjoy a relaxed and supportive atmosphere in which to grow your creativity.
*Class will feature a live art model for several sessions. Parental consent required for students under 18.
I registered for this class because I wanted to be challenged. Terry is an excellent teacher and teaches me to explore!
This class is open to learners of all-levels of experience, though some familiarity with painting is beneficial.
