This 8-week Wednesday morning class is for anybody who has done some painting and wants to move beyond the basics into developing a more distinct style, exploring specific themes and series, and finding greater self expression in their art.

But we will also keep working on the visual elements like color harmony, shadow and light, how to use line and texture, figure and portrait painting.

Every week of this 8-week adult class in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, we will find inspiration in the work of various artists from art history and contemporary art.

Dates: April 23rd, April 30th, May 7th, May 14th, May 21st, May 28th, June 4th, June 11th
