Acrylic Painting Practice

Class Description:
There’s something so satisfying of layering vibrant colours on a clean canvas and creating something you are proud of! If you enjoy encouragement while gently expanding on your creative boundaries, this 5 week class is for you. We always mix-up the projects so this Painting Practice class can be taken multiple times as we continue developing your individual painting skills.

Enjoy a coffee or cup of tea and some baked goodies while you explore all things paint!

Note – Students that have taken this class with Jess before know that we do NEW projects every session, so you won’t get bored taking this class multiple times!

Week 1 – Monoprints! Learn how to use a monoprint as a jumping off point for your painting!

Week 2 – Love you some thick paint? Impasto is what it’s all about this week! Create a dynamic, vibrant painting with a whole lotta paint and a palette knife.

Week 3 – In this class we will be layering and glazing and patterning (definitely a word!) to construct our painting!

Weeks 4 & 5 – Bring in your own photo as a reference and we will break it down, edit, and go for it!
