Drawing and painting have been a lifelong activity for me. My recent efforts of improving my brush techniques have brought me to a new level that I hope to share with you.
The wet-on-wet painting method we all see on TV is having a comeback and I can show you how to enjoy the freedom of making quick clouds, mountains, trees, and water.
There is a power to learning this time-tested method that gives you confidence and creative energy. Bill Alexander showed me anyone can paint. Now I can show you too.
There are two sessions: Wednesday evening 6–9 and Saturday morning 9–noon.
Preferred starter kit as follows:

3 canvas art panels or stretched canvas, no smaller than 11 inches, no bigger than 18 inches
Paint: set of white, red, yellow, blue, plus a dark brown (burnt umber or van dyke)
Angled palette knife, 1-inch bristle brush, medium fan brush, medium liner brush
Paper towels
Basic chem gloves or shielding lotion
Thinner, large brushes, and white base paint will be provided. Most items will be available for purchase or rent as supplies last.
Bring your own supplies, or use the instructor’s for $10 a session.
