Drawing & Acrylic Painting

for Beginners & Non-Artists

Dec 10 & 11, 2016, 9:30 am - 4:30 pm both days  

This workshop is designed especially for novices! We start with easy drawing exercises and build up step-by-step with demos, hand-outs, and hands on experience. Learn real art fundamentals in a fun, and non intimidating way. You'll leave with a better appreciation of art in general, and a black & white still-life painting of your very own, and be amazed at what you can do!

Cost: $167 — Materials $30, or bring your own, list provided.

Who are you? How do you feel about yourself or your life? What do you like and what do you want to hide? Working with mirrors we'll consider posture, lighting, color palette, and textures. Be surprised with your discoveries!

— Previous painting experience recommended.

Cost: $127 — Materials $40, or bring your own, list provided.

"Being a first time art student, I gained valuable insight... it was the perfect start. I learned to let go of my mind and allow my true creativity to come out. Dayna held the space for that process very well!" — Steve B.

"The great joy was learning to see what was in front of us and give expression to it on the canvas. Dayna's gentle guidance made for a truly joyful experience." — Victoria M.

"A good value! It costs less than other classes and is much better instruction then I've gotten elsewhere." — Nancy H.
