This is a painting class based on the works of old masters. We will be painting as well as researching a bit about painters of the past while attempting to incorporate some of the techniques of those painters into our own work. It is a chance to expand your skill set, learn more about other artists and in the process more about your own work. Bring your paints and your visions and we will explore the the art of the masters.
