Leave your assumptions about painting on a small scale at the studio door. In this series we'll emphasize improvisation and spontaneity. In every session we'll complete one 12” x 12” painting using a wide range of subject matter and techniques. We might paint a still life one week and a pure abstraction another week. This four-week course will build confidence in your painting skills and set your art-making process free.
