Hi Everyone!!!

 

December classes have been posted.

 

If anyone is interested in taking Bob Ross CRI training classes here is a link for the newest schedule.

 

https://experience.bobross.com/cri-classes/

 

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: 

"Practice, Practice, Practice".  It is really true that the more you practice the better you become, even if you think you don't have any talent.

The best way to practice is to pick one element at a time and using an old canvas paint that element repeatedly.  When you fill up the canvas, wipe it off, and start again.

You can use the same canvas over and over by wiping off the paint when your done.  You can also paint an old canvas with white acrylic or gesso to use for practice.

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.

"Don't be afraid to scrape the paint off and do it again. This is the way you learn: trial and error, over and over, repetition."_____Bob Ross
