Happy New Year Artists,
What a wonderful way to start the year in our winter wonderland. It looks beautiful outside, and I am excited to paint some Impressionist style paintings to enjoy the season.
As the quiet, cold time of year approaches, it’s the perfect time to learn a new skill or continue your art-learning journey. Join Rani in her mini workshop (paints included) to paint a quiet, watercolor winter scene with a shy deer. Or join Ashley as she helps you discover the techniques to comfortably draw your subjects. Drawing is the foundation of all painting. Strengthen your drawing skills to help you understand the underlying structures of all art.
Be sure to take advantage of our Super January Sale and pick up favorite books (20% - 40% off all books) or an accessory you have been wanting. If you had art supplies on your wish list that Santa didn’t bring you, check our Up-to-30% off sales throughout the store.
Our upcoming classes and workshops are described below. Details about all of our upcoming classes and workshops for the winter and spring and how to register are on our website (www.paintworksart.com). We have many new workshops scheduled for the spring - too many to mention here.
