In this engaging class you will have the opportunity to add to your oil painting skills and techniques more effectively through the exploration of brush work, paint application, colour mixing, composition and design.
Stephanie will lead you through a variety of subject matter from real life to photo references, such as landscape, still life, floral and abstract in order to create paintings that have a fresh off the palette feel; all in a relaxed and fun painting studio environment!
What a great way to get creative during the spring and summer seasons!
