Upcoming Virtual Classes

Beginning January 12: 7 Tuesdays (January thru February) 2021, 1 – 3  pm Central

If you are tired of looking at your realistic depictions of your painting subject, if you love other painters’ work because of its fresh, bold strokes I dare you to paint with me in January.

The goal of this class is to paint A LOT.  We will have many timed, quick sessions.  We will be doing blind contour painting and drawing.  The objective is to see how gestural our marks might become if we get out of our own way!

6:30 – 8 pm Central

Explore watercolor basics, whether you’re beginning or getting back in the groove. Supply Lists for either tight budgets or for splurging—your choice.  Playful paint-alongs each week
