In this class participants will continue to explore how to see like a painter. Using the time-honored still life as subject matter participants will gain more confidence using the four basic principles of oil painting: value, color, edges, and paint quality. The instructor will set up one still life each week for everyone to paint from.

Learn to paint with confidence by developing trust in your unique visual interpretation, using this as a starting point and a focus throughout your painting in order to be open to learning or change. Learning to paint is a lifelong process and in this class my desire is to be truly helpful to you on your journey!

Classes will include instructor demonstrations, group critiques, and individual attention at the easel. The instructor will respond to the needs of each student and address their level of development. Classes are appropriate for all skill levels.
