Welcome to Painted Paper Shells - a fun and creative class where we’ll capture the magic of the beach by crafting a collection of hand-painted paper shells—each one unique and perfect for adding a coastal touch to your art.
In this class, you’ll learn to draw four distinct types of shells and starfish, layer on beautiful colors, and add expressive details with mark-making and pen outlining. We’ll cut out our finished pieces to create a personalized set of paper shells ready to use in art journals, mixed media projects, or even a painted seascape background for a complete scene.
Just like beachcombing for treasures, this process invites us to play and explore, but with paper and paint!
