PAINTING CLASS- Oil, Acrylic or Watercolor

We meet each week and do a variety of class projects: working from still life,  landscape photos,  experimenting with different styles and artistic approaches. We will vary the days with class assignments and independent projects. Constructive critique help move the student to the next level of their artistic practice. You can bring your art supplies in what medium you have on hand.
Instructor: Allison LeBaron
Meets:Tuesdays 11:00am – 1:15pm
Instruction & Facility Fee: $30 per class (paid by the month), ($50 for one trial class)
Materials: Bring all your art supplies that you already own. Please DON’T buy a set of art materials from our local craft stores.  They don’t have what we need.
