Hi Everyone!!!

 

Below are 4 more painting classes which are all brand new. I haven't done any of them before.

 

Two of the new paintings are from the Season 32 of The Joy of Painting, on PBS, with Nicolas Hankins.

 

I've never had the pleasure of taking a class from Nicolas but I think he's done a great job with the new season. He's pretty relaxed, confident and, like Bob, makes everything look so easy. (I think he's channeling Bob)

 

Anyway I really like the paintings from Season 32 and plan on offering others from this season.

All classes are $50 which includes all supplies.

 

We will take a short break during class so bring a snack if you'd like. Water, coffee and tea are provided. Also, there is a small refridgerator if you need to keep anything cold. Weather permitting we can have our break on the new deck.


Class times are 9:00 am - 1:00 pm. However, the 1:00 pm end time may vary depending on the painting and pace of the class.

 

Keep in mind that you'll be going home with a wet oil painting that will need to lay flat in the car. Some people use a large pizza box (bigger than 16 x 20) or you can purchase wet canvas carriers online.

 

Class size is limited to 8 students.

 

If you've registered for a class and are unable to attend please let me know as soon as possible so I can release your spot to someone else.

 

If you try to sign up and the class is full please let me know and I'll put you on a waiting list. If enough people want to take the class I can schedule another one.

Artist Tip: 

How long does it take for a painting to dry?

Drying time depends on a number of factors such as heat, humidity, thickness of paint, painting surface, brand of paint used, and the mediums used with the paint.  Individual colors also affect the drying time. In my experienced Titanium White takes the longest to dry.

The average time for an oil painting to dry, when painted in the wet-on-wet technique, can be two to three weeks to the touch and up to about six months to one year to dry completely.
