Classes are 2.5 hours long and begin Thursday evening, October 2 and end on November 6 from 6pm-8:30pm
Students are responsible to purchase needed supplies–you can find Blick & Amazon links to the supplies needed for the class listed under the shop page or we can have a kit ready for you on the first day of class for $95. Make sure to email us in advance to let us know if you will need a kit.
Class limited to 12 students and will require a minimum of 6 to be conducted.
Supplies list: Links to supplies are on our website SHOP page for both Amazon and Blick.
- Paintbrushes (for acrylic) I suggest at least 3 different sizes: a bright (size 10), bright (size 4) & round (size 2)–basically, big, medium and a small pointed brush 😉
- a palette (palette paper works well) or a “Sta-Wet palette” even paper plates
- acrylic paint in at least the 5 colors (red, blue, yellow, black & white–Liquitex Basics make a good starter paint set).
- 2- 8×10″ canvas and 1-16×20″ canvas to paint on…canvas board, wood panel, back-stapled or whatever you’d like to try
- Tabletop Easel (not necessary as you can borrow one from us, but if you plan to paint at home, I’d suggest an easel of some kind)
- a palette knife (not absolutely necessary, but definitely worth buying)
- pencil
