PAINTING CLASSES
I am now offering weekly classes on Tuesdays 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m., at the Sea Goat Maker’s Space in Mckinleyville, ages 12 and up. Acrylic paint on canvas. You choose what you want to paint, so everyone is working on their own unique painting. I recommend that students work from photographs. You can bring in your own photos that are printed out, or you can use the reference photos available in the class. You can also work from your drawings, using reference photos for the different elements within the drawing.
Cost is $140 for 4 classes (3 hours each), and includes materials for your first painting. Sizes of canvas available range from 8 x 10” to 11 x 14”.
After your first four classes, you can sign up for another set of 4 for $120, or per class for $30. When you start a new painting, you will have to either bring in your own materials, or pay a $20 materials fee.
The number of students per class is currently limited to 7.
Another way i can help is by offering a critique of your paintings in progress, or by answering any questions you have about your paintings. Maybe you have taken them as far as you can, and wonder how you can improve them. You can either bring your paintings into a class that you are signed up for, or you can email me photos of your paintings which we can talk about on the phone?
I previously taught painting classes at the Westhaven Center for the Arts in Northern Humboldt County, California, for 10 years, until early 2020. Before that, I taught for a few years in Ocean Beach, San Diego, from 2005 to 2008.
