Adult Class | Registration opens 5/5/2026 9:00 AM MDT
The class is geared for all levels with a goal towards developing your own style of painting.
We all have an untapped reservoir of creativity within us.
I plan on having student work on two canvases developing one in gray tones and one in a color of your choice . Reworking each canvas continually while experiment with all the elements of art. Exploring the visual components of color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value.
