ART WORKSHOPS FOR ADULTS SPRING 2018
We believe everyone is an artist at the Creative Palette. Our mission is to provide a safe, nuturing environment where both beginners and advanced artists can come and relax and create art using different methods and materials with an experienced artist. Come and experience a home-based studio for smaller more specialized classes. We will be offering "en plein aire" classes, figurative classes using live models, and different art forms including sculpture, mixed media and painting both indoors and out. Check regularly for new workshops! Our workshops for adults ages 16 and older are usually Tuesday mornings or Friday nights for adults!
"En Pleine Aire- Outdoor Acrylic Landscape Painting
Great class for beginners as we follow the artist step-by-step and learn how to paint outdoors and apply acrylics in a thicker, painterly manner. Impressionistic use of bold strokes of colour will be demonstrated as we learn to work from both life and photos to develop a painting style together. (On bad weather days we work indoors.)
Tuesdays April 24th, May 1st and 8th, 2018 from 10:30 am to 1 pm
This class is now full! Look for a new one fall 2018!
Cost is $185 plus HST and includes all supplies

"Art must be an expression of love or it is nothing."
-Marc Chagall
"The object isn’t to make art, it’s to be in that wonderful state which makes art inevitable."
-Robert Henri
"When it is working, you completely go to another place, you are tapping into things that are totally universal, completely beyond your ego and your own self. That's what it is all about."
