A class designed for students of Intermediate level using acrylic paints on big canvas. You can work from photos, a still life set up, ideas of personal objects or pics off internet. I will concentrate on figurative painting, but you don’t have too. You will work to accomplish your own goals as you learn good composition, color, principles of design and brushwork techniques. There will be a short introduction discussion prior to starting on your painting adventure.
