We will learn different painting techniques using different sized and shaped brushes. An image will be provided and each student will begin to understand how to create an original piece of art using their own insights and abilities. The goal is not necessarily to come away with a finished piece of art, but for the participants to gather knowledge and take his information with them to continue to create original artwork on their own. Please provide your own materials for this class. Recommended materials: Complete Acrylic Paint Set with Art Brushes, Art knife, and sponge. Ampersand Art Supply Wood Gesso Painting Panel 8”x10” A limited number of these items will be available at the Art Garage for purchase.
