Art Classes

Take your paintings beyond realism in this course with Connie Geerts.  Over 4 weeks you’ll learn a number of ways to approach abstracting an image.  You’ll work with reference photos to abstract landscape, people, animals or whatever subject matter you choose.  You’ll try out some mixed media techniques and also learn how to start when creating from imagination.  Come ready to play in this fun supportive class!
