Class Overview: My classes are for those who have always wanted to paint but have been terrified to lift a brush. All too often we talk ourselves out of trying before we even start. My goal is to take down the barriers you have put up, give you confidence in your talent and inspire you to keep creating! You don’t need any fancy tools or supplies to create something you can be really proud of.

What You Will Learn:

How to use an ordinary kitchen sponge to lay in a sky and sea
How to paint clouds with your fingers
How to paint waves with a credit card
How to support your hand to paint fine lines
How to transfer an image to your canvas

Why You Should Take This Class:

The skills you will learn in this class are readily transferrable to many other painting projects. At the end of the class you will be able to deconstruct the elements of the painting to duplicate and reconstruct them into different compositions. By breaking the painting down into simple and easy to follow steps I will guide you to a lovely maritime scene. My tutorials leave plenty of room for individuality, make it your own! You can do this-

Who This Class is For: This class is geared towards beginner painters. Especially terrified ones!
