Sessions
Each week, we’ll dive into one complete project—designed to inspire, challenge, and nurture your creativity.
Out of the six possible projects, we’ll complete four during the 4-week course.
Three projects are pre-planned, and the remaining two will be voted on by the group so you can help shape the experience!
Fantasy Nature – Observation Meets Imagination
We will practice observation, sketching, and memory-based painting, but with imaginative freedom.
No pressure while building confidence
Fragmented Perspectives I – Still Life in Four Views
We apply our observational skills across multiple views.
Think in parts and wholes
Painted Persona – Portrait Through Still Life
Here, technical skill ramps up a bit with portrait construction and emotional storytelling through color. We will work with mood and reference, pushing our conceptual and figurative skills.
Something completely different
A Place of My Own-Favorite Place Project
In this session, students will create a painting inspired by a meaningful place—a favorite getaway, or any setting that brings joy, calm, or comfort. Bring a printed photo of your chosen place to use as a reference. Whether it's real or imagined, this is your place to be.
Like a pro :)
Stone Meditation – Painting Emotion Through Object
Emotion-driven and abstract, this class demands introspection, symbolic thinking, and expressive composition. It’s less about realism and more about communicating inner states.
Just breathe...
Fragmented Perspectives II – Depth & Storytelling
This builds on Fragmented Perspectives I, focusing more on symbolism, narrative, and unity. We will think thematically and begin expressing more personal ideas across our canvases.
Confidence!
The Mask – Identity, Emotion, and Found Materials
A powerful culmination. This project brings in mixed media, storytelling, character building, and creative freedom. It’s tactile, theatrical, and expressive—a celebration of everything learned.
Celebrate!
