This is a class for beginning oil and acrylic students. Students will learn how to set up a palette and workspace, and how to use brushes and other implements and mediums. Students will learn how to mix colors and how to use colors to represent light. Working within a supportive atmosphere, there will be demonstrations, learning from the masters, and experimentation.

The image used for this class is artwork by Paige Orloff, a beginning painting student!
