WHEN: 4-class session / Thursday, June 6-27 from 3-5 PM

AGES: Adults, 18+

DESCRIPTION: With guidance from Diana Stezalski, students will explore the versatile medium of acrylic paint. Sharing characteristics with oil paints but water-soluble like watercolors, acrylics are a safe, flexible, fun media that allow for a wide color spectrum, quick dry time, and playful techniques. Value, composition, and color mixing will be emphasized through hands-on exercises as students develop a series of paintings that encourage exploration in the style/subject of their choice.
