Painting & Mixed Media

Craft Enrichment painting classes provide instruction in a variety of media – oils, acrylics, watercolor, and East Asian brush painting, depending on the semester. Topics apply to any subject matter, abstract or realistic, and include composition, perspective, proportion, lighting, texture, and color harmony. Skills are applicable to landscapes, still life, florals, portraits, animal paintings (including pet portraits) and abstract expression. Each class description will include whether supplies are or are not included.

Visual Journaling - ONLINE

A visual journal is a creative combination of diary, doodle pad, to-do list, sketchbook, and scrapbook. Visual journaling is deeply personal and meaningful, and requires no artistic training--only a playful willingness to experiment! Visual journaling also requires very few art supplies, making it a wonderfully democratic, all-access method of creative expression.
