Event Overview

Curious about making art?  Try your hand at oil painting!  Oil paint's versatility, longevity, and rich, luscious look, make it as relevant today with contemporary artists as with the likes of Da Vince and Caravagio.  You too can learn how to use this medium to bring out the artistic vision you have. 


There is a lot to learn, but the experience is exciting and rewarding.  In our class we will discuss your goals, and you will have the flexibility to explore different styles and subjects from still lives, to portraits, to abstract contemporary paintings.  In a private setting or alongside another students or two, I will introduce you to oil painting and break it down into clear, simple concepts and techniques.  I do this by sharing with you all necessary information and years of personal experience about the materials, techniques, and mindsets a visual artist should exercise.  I tell you exactly what you need to know so that you can start practicing the skills and mindsets quickly.  


No need to invest in your own materials just yet...  When you enter my studio, I’ll have everything set up for you so we can start learning and painting.  I’ll provide quality materials and a space where you can get dirty and get creative. When you are done, you can leave your painting to dry until next class.


All levels welcome.
