Acrylic Painting Practice

Class Description:
Art is more enjoyable when you develop your skills by practicing techniques on different projects. This class is for those who are new to painting or want to continue expanding their skills. The mood is relaxed, welcoming and supportive – a place to make friends or just zone out in your own creative space.

As we develop new projects for every session, this class is designed to be taken multiple times and will gently challenge your creative barriers and expand on your capabilities. If you want to produce your own style of art with support and guidance, this class is for you.

Week 1 – This class will be all about colour, colour, colour! We will also spend some time finding out which colours you should focus on using in your own paintings.

Week 2 – In this paint layering project, we will focus on a focal point (ha!), create interesting textures, and transfer an image onto our painting.

Week 3 – In this class, we will look at Georgia O’Keefe as inspiration to create our own magnified images. Oooo la la!

Week 4 and 5 – Bring in your own photo as a reference and we will break it down, edit, and go for it!
