People, Places and Things…PAINTING DRILLS—with Tracy Budd
8 classes: Mondays, March 17th–May 12th (no class on April 21st!) • 1:00 p.m.–4:00 p.m. • $280
This 8 week class is designed to answer some of the most frequently asked “questions“ on our painting journeys. We will work weekly on “drills” addressing painting trees, rocks, water, skies, shadows and highlights. Our subject matter will be photos of your choice, but we will work weekly on specific challenges that arise in our work in acrylics and watermedia. Call it Acrylic Boot Camp and hopefully all will come away with a better understanding of the basics in this medium! Use form at left to contact Tracy for a supply list.
