Spring Painting Series: Gouache
Thinking about painting, but don’t know where to start? Local artist Renee Plevy leads this four-class series designed for beginners. This is the perfect way to learn the basics of gouache in a relaxed, fun atmosphere. All materials and expert instruction included.
Gouache is a water-based paint designed to be less transparent than watercolor. It dries to a flat finish and does not have that watery look compared to watercolors.
Your registration covers all four two-hour sessions. Participants must be able to attend all four sessions.
Dates: Tuesdays — April 21, April 28, May 5, May 12
Time: 4 two-hour sessions. 10:30 am – 12:30 pm
Class size is limited so everyone gets personalized guidance and support. Sign up today to guarantee your spot and let your creativity shine!
