Curious about oil painting but unsure where to start? Join us for a risk-free introduction to the world of oils! This class is designed for beginners who want to explore oil painting without the pressure of a long-term commitment. You’ll receive an overview of essential oil painting materials and tools, including brushes, paints, and surfaces. We’ll also dive into the basics of color theory and mixing, helping you understand how to create harmonious color palettes. With guidance, you’ll create your first oil painting, choosing from a selection of instructor-provided photographs, including still life, landscapes, and more. This class is perfect for those who want to dip their toes into oil painting, learn the basics, and walk away with a completed piece of art—all in a supportive, low-pressure environment.
All painting supplies for this class will be provided, so you can fully immerse yourself in the creative process. A small fee to cover the cost of supplies is included in the price.
