Held at Shake Rag Alley in Mineral

Sunday, October 11th 9am-4pm

An artist really learns to paint when given the freedom to let go of a subject and the expectations of a single painting. This class will help you do this through repetition and technique. Painting the same subject five times, you will learn experimentation and be challenged to find ways to rediscover the subject. The uses of acrylic paint will be covered as part of the journey. We will discuss topics such as color, value, style, method, history, and more!

How to arrive at that exact shade of green…or blue…we have all been there experimenting, perhaps wasting a lot of paint! This acrylic painting workshop takes inspiration from the palette of the natural world and centers our focus on color mixing and matching from both life and photo. Instructor-led exercises will start students honing their skills; and a final painting from photo will put those skills to use! We will break 30 minutes for lunch. $75 CCC Members / $90 Non-Members
