design but rich with flavor, this painting is sure to be a hit in your home. The
painting will be completed by YOU in the frame work of our session. Think of
what might be a fantastic addition as an accent piece to your present color
scheme at home and we will build around that! Very easy to do with a couple
of easy to remember steps.

Use the power of color relationships to set your painting apart from the crowd.
This class will show you how. Though these skills have developed from the
Impressionist style of painting, this is a very contemporary use of color. We
paint the ‘temperature’ of color. So, why limit your paintings to value and color
alone . . . add temperature! Format of class is structured first, third and last
weeks of the five classes with the second and fourth open studio so that you
can also work on your own projects with the instructor’s individualized help.

Creative & Expressive
Landscapes

Wednesdays, 1:00 – 3:00
Session 1: Jan. 4, 11, 18, 25*
Session 2: Mar. 14, 21, 28, April 4, 11
Improve your painting skills by seeing color and design differently. Add some
expressive human figures and learn more about creating mood, light and
depth in your scenes. Learn also the essentials of perspective for good size
relationships. I will demonstrate a quick painting in each class so you can see
exactly how to do what I teach. Each student will get instructive critiques of
their work. I will be using acrylics but students can use any painting media.
Some painting experience would be helpful.
