ART CLASSES FOR ADULTS
Fall 2026. Foundations of Oil Painting
Ages 16 and up.
During this 8-week adult oil painting course, students will build a strong foundation in drawing and classical painting techniques. We will begin with observation, proportion, light, and value studies before moving into oil painting.
Students will learn how to prepare a composition, mix colors, understand form, and develop a painting step by step. Through guided exercises and a final still life project, participants will gain confidence with oil materials and discover a deeper appreciation for the painting process.
All levels are welcome — no previous experience required.
By the end of the session, students will:
Understand basic drawing and painting principles
Learn how to approach a painting step-by-step
Gain confidence with oil materials
Complete a finished still life oil painting
Tuesday, 7:00 - 9:00 pm / Ages 16 and up.
Dates: September 8,15,22,29. October 6,13,20,27.
Fall 2026. Open studio / Ages 16 and up
OPEN STUDIO offers you the opportunity to create at your own pace and focus on the projects that inspire you — whether you are painting a favorite subject, developing your drawing skills, or exploring new techniques.
During this three-hour studio session, you will work mostly independently in a relaxed and creative environment. The instructor will be available for occasional guidance, feedback, and helpful suggestions to support your artistic process and help you move forward with your project. This is not a traditional step-by-step class, but a space for artists who enjoy learning through practice and personal exploration. Bring your ideas, continue unfinished work, or start something new.
Perfect for artists of all levels — from beginners looking for a supportive creative space to experienced artists who want dedicated time to create.
Friday, 5:00 - 8:00 PM.
