OIL PAINTING LIKE THE MASTERS! – Jennifer Redstreake Geary – instructor
WEDNESDAYS, starting September 8; class time 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm  Register here
A fun and easy class for those who want to learn the many techniques of oil painting like the masters. This was a popular class last year so we thought we could do it again this year. We will take one of our favorite paintings by a master artist like Rembrandt or Vermeer and recreate it. (So think about this as you sign up for the class! Break open those art books people!) This is also a great class for those who have taken the Beginner class previously. Local artist and instructor Jennifer Redstreake Geary will focus on extending your knowledge and creativity through oils. A painting will be completed during the class. Classes meet once a week for four weeks and meet on designated Wednesdays for two hours. Storage for your supplies is not available, but is available for your wet works-in-progress. We hope to see you there!
A supply list will be available by request. Please email redstreake@mac.com for more info or call 931 636-9898 for a supply list.
Class fee $50.00 (4 weeks) paid with registration.
