Find your voice and your vision in a creative environment devoted to learning, discussion, and painting. This class is focused on helping the painter in you achieve the visual potential of your canvases. You will have a chance to improve your technique and expressive style in a supportive atmosphere, with personal attention from instructor and group critiques. The class uses a mix of still life and individual projects that span the range from realism to abstract expressionism. Students are also welcome to work on paintings that have a longer developmental path. Painting inspired by drawing, and past studies, is also encouraged.
