This painting class is mixed media and mixed level: you are welcome and welcome to use oils. acrylic\, gouache\, or watercolor – or swap around week to week. \nWe’ll bring in fresh flowers from the garden and our favorate photos\, and learn strategies about painting from life and from references.  We will learn color theory\, mixing\, and elements of compostion and apply it all to a bounty of blooms.  \nMaterials List (students bring their supplies) \nSince the class is a mix of different paint media\, each student will be responsible for bringing the supplies they need fro their paint choice. For example\, if you would like to wor with watercolors and inks\, you will need to bring your watercolor paints\, so brushes\, a pad of paper\, ink pens\, a pencil to sketch\, etc.  If you are working with oils or acrylics\, please bring your paints\, palette\, brushes\, and a couple canvases or a pad of canvas paper or  prepared boards. \nThe number of paintings depends entirely on each person’s mood and speed each day; however\, it is recommended to have enough paper/canvases to paint on about 1-2 per class\, in case things get wet and you want to hop over onto a new painting while waiting for one to dry.  So for the five weeks\, a supply of between 5-10 surfaces of different sizes. \n$200 Members | $230 Non-members  \nCLASS REGISTRATION – CURRENT MEMBERS \nCLASS REGISTRATION – NON-MEMBERS
