Mountain meets ocean tryptic

Painting a tryptic. I created this 72” piece for our Church’s coffee shop. In this class we will recreate a smaller (1/2 scale )framed version for your wall. Each section is 12” wide

This will painting involves lots of blending, but a limited color palette. It is a surprising simple piece. So book a seat and we will walk you through each step. the image outlines are pre sketched on the panels, so this class is all about brush techniques, and blending. soooo fun. We will create a finished piece ready to hang, so bring your coffee mug, this is going to take a while. Class will run from 11:00 am to 3:30, so bring snacks for the teacher.

This workshop starts with premade and drawn plywood cover sheets primed with outdoor paint, ready to finish. the panels are sized to cover the end of a standard fuel tank and fit around the fuel valve. The panels are attached by magnets. Each work shop will walk you through the process for painting the pre drawn design. the first one is a fireweed design in a stain glass style. These are 8 hour workshops and will be held outdoors.

Thrift store art paint up workshop

June 21 from 11:00 am to 2:30 pm

Mission one is to go shopping at your favorite thrift store and pick up some old, slightly over used, damaged, outdated, under loved art. Then bring it with you for the class and we will have fun adding in critters, cars, sky scrapers, dragons, bigfoot, sparkles, and any number of other fun twists. We will provide some templates, art supplies, and a little bit of artistic guidance to make this a fun project.
