This is a class for all those who would like to learn how to paint using a wonderful medium that's truly fabulous for beginners.  Acrylics are one of the best painting mediums for a beginner because it's more “forgiving” and mistakes can be painted over quite easily. In this class you will learn how to mix colors by creating color charts as a way to truly understand how to get the color you want. After understanding color mixing, students will bring in simple pictures of subjects of interest to use for your very own “canvas” creations. Come ready to have fun and to create your very own works of art that you'll be proud of!
