The main purpose of this course is to provide a solid and straight forward intro into acrylic painting for beginners. This course also promotes positive art experiences, allows for creative healing and art therapy sessions, and offers rich artistic opportunities to those who would prefer to learn at home.
As an instructor, I am involved and interested in the experiences of all my students. I look forward to spending quality time with you in the course, and being in contact about your artistic journey.
If you are feeling nervous about taking a painting course, I understand your worries, and will leave you with the knowledge that it's an extremely common feeling. Students have shared many stories about having a fear of failing. I have yet to see anyone who has tried out a course, to be disappointed in their journey. In fact, it's been those students that had the most fear in the beginning, who then became highly passionate painters.
All the best to you, and I hope to see you in the course :)
