Tuesdays, October 28 – November 18, 1-4pm
$225 | Ages 14+ (with accompanying adult)
Beginner Class
Get to know the loose and gestural side of painting using acrylic paint in this four-week course. The goal is to learn a fairly quick, fresh way of working with acrylics (and avoid the rigid small brush work). We will explore various techniques, brushes and materials designed for the beginning painter. The instructor will do demonstrations in her lively loose style to get you started practicing with loose gestural marks. We will cover ways to simplify and capture the feeling or essence of a landscape by painting a beach scene. Whether a beginner or just reviving your interest in painting, our goal is to help you understand basic techniques and build confidence handling this fun and forgiving medium.
All Materials will be provided but the instructor can provide a list of suggested supplies for those who would like it. Deadline to register is October 24
Scholarships may be available. If funds are a barrier to learning, please CLICK HERE to request financial assistance.
To help ensure an enjoyable experience for all, we kindly encourage guests to consider attending fragrance-free in support of those with allergies and sensitivities.
About the instructor: Robin has a lifelong creative hand—foremost in watercolor painting and sketching, and often in design, fiber art, weaving, or garden elements. Her approach is strongly influenced by small-town life in the coastal Pacific Northwest. While working in mapping and engineering, her art pursuits continued, often self-taught along with college classes or private workshops. She relocated to Seal Rock, Oregon, in 2021 and is active with the local creative community and plein air painting gangs and enjoys hiking, tinkering, and paddling.
