This is a great beginning to intermediate level class. Jennifer’s joy is contagious and you will have a blast hanging out for two days of fun and exciting playing in the paint. You’ll learn basics like color, composition and values as well as fun techniques of splashing rubbing alcohol and rubber placemat textures. We all learn and laugh, and you go home with an “I can DO this” confidence and knowledge. Click on the supplies link above to access a list of what you are welcome to with.

$200 includes small warm-up boards for the first days use, hand-outs and access to texturing pastes and Varnishes. We will be focused on composition, values and turning those “Stuck” paintings into “Fantastic” ones. Bring your own reference photos and ideas.

You will need to bring your own supplies.

There will be a 10 person maximum class size to allow for distancing with masks.  The instructor is fully vaccinated and students are encouraged to do the same.

This three day workshop will be a beginner’s class on Thursday and Friday, Intermediate on Saturday. Cost is $150 each day.
If you have not taken any classes from me before, you are allowed to sign up for the Thursday class. This will be a VERY beginner, “color-wheel, pear and wine bottle painting” easy class. The remaining days will get progressively more informative and detailed. No matter your level of painting ability, you will enjoy all of the following days. Do not be intimidated.
