Hi Everyone!!!

 

New paintings for August and September just posted.

 

There is a new wildlife painting which, because of the popularity of the subject, I will be offering on two separate dates.

 

When registering for a class if you do not receive an almost immediate confirmation please email me at janice@paintingbug.com. It may not have gone through correctly.

 

Also, if you try to register for a class and it's "Sold Out" email me. I may be able to add another person or let you know if there's a cancellation.

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 6 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.

Artist Tip: 

Don't skimp on paint. When highlighting trees, land, and rocks the dark underpainting should be fairly thick.  The highlights will stick better if thinned a bit with liquid white, or a tiny bit of thinner.  As Bob always says a thin paint will stick to a thicker paint.

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.
