Just bring your paints and we'll go outside and have fun.
Having mastered all 3 mediums, Erin is able to assist each student in doing their best work with the paint they are familiar with. During the 2 day class she will demo on site in each medium and spend the rest of the day one on one with each participant. Values, shapes and colors will be stressed overall, so be prepared to work hard to incorporate many new ways of seeing as well as applying paint.
Just bring your outdoor easel, a cap and sunscreen and whatever set of paints and brushes you love most!
