The Art Of Painting Loose

Emphasis is on how to get the "tight" out of your painting and let the "loose" in!

Get tips on painting loose, how to get better color (lose the mud), composition - in general, how to get the Umpphhh! into your painting.

Class will start with a demo by Carol, then paint along with Carol as she demonstrates her technique. Late afternoon the class will start their own painting - from set up, photos Carol provides or bring your own photos. You will be surprised at how much you learn!

Setting is casual and fun!
