====================================================

I’ll be giving another art class this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday,(3rd, 4th, and 5th) for two hours each day. The first day I’ll help you prepare the canvas from a scene I’ll have taken on location. The second day we’ll go the the location and work with the prepared canvas to paint ‘live’. Friday we meet again at my house to wrap up the painting and de-program. 500p for the ‘tutorial’ or class. Young folks are free. And that doesn’t mean if you are 70 and feel like you are 15! Ha!
