Beginner Painting
with Suzette East
$50
A border can change the whole painting…..especially a layered one. We will start with three creative borders and different ways to suit them to the art. Wooden frame look, twining berries, floating colors, the students will create a small sparrow painting and pair the art onto the border of their choice. A great way to be creative, learn basic birds and develop an eye to put two paintings into one. You’ll need square canvases either panels or stretched. Three of a larger size (for borders) 8 x 8” and one smaller canvas (for bird) 4 x 4”. Suzette will supply bird transfer and notes plus examples to enlighten that inner artist inside. This piece is so beautiful when complete and the ways you can now complete painting edges are endless. Supplies needed: You’ll need: Tube artist acrylics in colors of: Titanium white, mars black, ultramarine blue, thalo blue, lemon yellow, quinacridone or acra magenta, burnt umber, Brushes: 1” flat shader or blender, no 10 flat and round, no 1 script liner and a wedge, chisel or angle brush of smaller size, sponge, (old brushes), 2 sided water/brush bin, palette, lt brown water color pencil. Come in comfy clothes and be prepared to create a masterpiece!
