We received this email outlining new class offerings for adults given through Walpole Recreation. Take a look!


PAINTING OUTSIDE THE LINES CLASS #: APO

East Walpole Community Center 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

$50 / $55 NR Saturday, Oct. 15

Bill St. George Adults

This fun and energetic one-day workshop offers the perfect

combination of flexibility for all levels of painters, from beginners

through professionals. Medium will be either acrylic or oil (or both).

A basic understanding of drawing would be helpful. Class warm-ups

and short exercises get students painting quickly & freely, then more

technical aspects of oil and acrylic painting are covered in longer

painting projects, from properly toning a canvas, to brushwork,

composition, and paint and color selections. One-on-one critiques

provide a supportive atmosphere and encourage student success.

Please bring a lunch. For more information re: art supplies, etc.
