Painting Landscapes
Adult Classes | Available
Unwind, explore your creativity, and connect with a supportive community of fellow art lovers in this inspiring landscape painting class. Designed for beginner to intermediate artists, this course will introduce you to the essential foundations of both oil and acrylic painting. Whether you're just getting started or looking to deepen your skills, you'll gain confidence as you learn about composition, value, color theory, materials, and painting techniques. You'll have the opportunity to discover what inspires you most—whether it's skies, trees, mountains, or seascapes—and learn how to translate your vision into a luminous landscape painting. Some drawing experience is helpful but not required.
Paint (oil or acrylic)
Please have Fine Artist Version of paint not student grade.
Charvin, Old Holland, Sennelier and Michael Harding are all good companies. French Ultramarine Blue Light Cyan Transparent Red Oxide or Burnt Sienna Alizarin Crimson Quinacridone Magenta Vermillion Lemon Yellow Gamboge Permanent Sap Green Permanent Green Viridian Titanium White
*I don’t use Cadmium paints, but if you have them bring them.
Brushes
A set of Bristle brushes size 2 to 12
Rosemary Brushes Ivory collection are excellent size 2 to 10
Creative Mark and SOHO makes nice brushes.
Miscellaneous
Paper towels (Bounty)
Sketch pad & pencil
Blue painters tape
Palette paper (I use freezer paper)
Disposable surgical gloves (optional)
Acrylic painters need Retarder if they want to slow the drying time
Oil painters need Lindseed Oil and Gamsol by Gamblin
Containers to put each medium in. They make a glass jar with spring in it for gamsol. A deli container with a lid is great for linseed oil.
The Masterson Palette Seal helps save paint waste. It needs a paper palette inside. (optional)
I purchase my supplies mostly from Jerry’s Artarama and sometimes Dick Blick. I order brushes directly from Rosemary Brushes.
