Who Is This Class For?
Many artists just copy their photos and try to duplicate exactly what they see. The end results are typically boring and lack personality. In this class we will use photos as a starting point but infuse some creativity and expressive painting techniques to create art that's unique and exciting.
If you want to branch out and try something fun and fresh this is a class you don't want to pass up. When you are finished with the lessons you will have a new approach to painting and loads of ideas that will bring you enjoyment and creative freedom.
