Description
This class format is open and encouraging, intended for intermediate to advanced painters. Colour, composition and different acrylic painting techniques are demonstrated in a 30 min presentation at the beginning of each lesson. Subjects may be landscape or abstract, to be determined in part by the students. You are encouraged to bring your own ideas and inspiration to the projects, whether you prefer a more realistic or abstract approach – but Jacquelyn also offers plenty of subject and direction ideas. Students can use the demonstration for direction pursue their own work. Some experience in acrylic painting is recommended.
