SU16 Tuesday Intermediate Painting

“If I could say it in words there would be no reason to paint ”- Edward Hopper

This class is designed to accommodate intermediate students (beginners are always welcome, of course), and will provide and an opportunity to sharpen basic skills while furthering students’ conceptual knowledge and experience with materials. Students will be encouraged to experiment with new painting surfaces and materials, as well as to  expand their palette. Relevant artists will be looked to as inspiration. Casual  group critiques may be scheduled during the semester, as they are important to both personal growth and to fostering a creative community within our class!

Note: It is recommended to first take the intro classes, but this class can be tailored for a beginner student if needed! Please email Nicole for more details.
