What do I need?!
Once registered, a complete supply and color list will be delivered to your inbox, but you don't need much to start!
A few basic supplies to grab:
- Painting Surface - I have done this on a 16x20 canvas, but any size will work. Pick what works for you! Who knows what size I will decide for this next one!
- A synthetic acrylic paint brush set (option to buy a special kit with brushes after purchase!)
- Acrylic craft paints
- Mixed Media Pad (any size) for practicing brush strokes
- Chalk
- A few paint pens
- Gel Medium if you want that extra lofty texture
Note: No need to prep anything ahead of time. I will start from the very beginning in the first lesson. My recommendation for all students is to watch first and then paint at the pace that works best for each person. This allows each student to really focus on what is being taught without trying to "keep up" during the lesson.
This will make the entire event much less stressful and allow for everyone to sit back and enjoy learning! This also allows you a chance to chat with me and ask questions live in the comments!
Art is FUN! We are all creative...
You may just not know it yet!
There is a creative side in each and every one of us and I am going to help uncover that!
In Fall Sunflowers Galore, you will learn how to paint with a palette knife, mix your own unique colors & use gel medium to create impasto style painting.
Most importantly, I am going to help us all cut loose, get messy, and have fun! Find Joy in the process of painting while following my simple instructions.
Yes...even if you have never painted before! Come along and trust me, I promise you will have a great time and discover the joy of painting!
The freedom that comes with it so satisfying and fun!
By the end of the painting, I have no doubt that everyone will use their hands and paint their way to happiness! Sit back, relax and TRUST THE PROCESS!
