Explore painting and bolster creativity in fall class  

Take a deeper dive into your own creativity while exploring color, texture and other elements of art during a 6-week session this fall. We’ll focus on painting with oils and cold wax, which offers a wide range of possibilities for expression and creative play. You’ll learn about tools, materials and new ways to use them. You’ll work with oil paints and cold wax medium on both archival paper and on panels.In addition to painting, we’ll think broadly about creativity as we use a journal or sketchbook to support our efforts. 

This class combines in-class demonstrations, self-directed work with instructor input, and guidance on exercises to complete on your own, all designed to strengthen your artistic practices. This class is open to anyone from relative novices to experienced artists investigating new materials and techniques. You’ll use your own materials supplemented by supplies and tools available in my studio.
