Rekindling Your Art Practice
for Adults

Picture
Do you feel like you never learned how to be creative?  Do you feel like there is an inner artist somewhere inside of you that you can't reach? If so, then Rekindling Your Art Practice is for you!  Most people never had the opportunity to learn concrete skills from a supportive teacher.  In this class, we will model our projects around old and new masters in a variety of styles- from liberating abstract projects to skill-building observational art.  This class is structured to build confidence, teach concrete skills, and provide students with a supportive environment where they can connect to their own creative interests.
