Painting Skill-builder is an ongoing series of three-hour painting sessions designed to enhance your painting abilities and move your painting practise to the next level! Tackling assigned exercises with specific target skills for each session, we will mostly be working from direct observation. Through this process, you will expand your capacity to see and render forms in space with more confidence, develop an eye for proportion, understand colour more deeply, and absorb the possibilities of brushwork nuance . If you have been painting alone, the camaraderie of a group dynamic can inject new energy into your artistic process. The group meets once per month, with a commitment via pre-registration as a benefit to you (for accountability!) and the other participants. Acrylic or oil.

Pre-requisite: Painting for Beginners Class or equivalent based on your previous work
