Class dates: November 4th, 11th 18th 6:30-8:30 p.m.
Students will explore ways to approach painting a bird of their choice (either serious or whimsical). Having three consecutive classes helps to allow plenty of time to practice, plan, and paint a finished piece.
In the first class we will discuss color basics, contrast, style, and basic painting strokes. We will practice and plan before we draw or transfer our bird onto the 11x14 canvas and paint the background. Many examples will be available to model from and a few to transfer if desired.
The second class will be largely the painting of the bird, capturing the expression, and layering or blending the colors. We will be painting an 11x14 canvas and learning techniques that assist and allow participants to improve their skills. You may draw your own or learn how to transfer a premade image (supplied).
Group is limited to 6 students. BYOB and/or snacks if desired.
Make sure to wear something that looks good with paint on it.
Basic painting supplies will be included (brushes and basic paint colors and an 11x14 canvas).
All of my classes are personalized so a student may repeat a class and get new instruction.
