It’s been awhile, but because I’m a packrat, I have all the printed materials of every painting class I ever taught. So I took some to A.C. Moore to see if they were interested in me teaching there, and, well, I’m in….
The manager wanted something new and fresh, so I worked up this Welcome Spring on a wooden box, and did a supply list so that students can buy all they need from A.C. Moore. That’s how it works. They have teachers teach so that they can sell the supplies. Makes sense to me.
The exact dates won’t be known until the end of the week, but for those of you who are local, and I know who you are, here’s pictures of my beginner’s class. The classroom can only seat eight students, but if there’s enough interest, I can run two classes. Classes will run for two days (one day each week for two weeks) from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a total of 6 hours. There will be homework, and this is freehand painting – no patterns to rely on. The cost is $50 plus supplies. The store handles all the money, but I’ll handle everything else. For those who know me, call me and I’ll reserve you a spot. For anyone else in the Hickory, NC area, call A.C. Moore next week.
Hope to meet some budding artists. I’m already working on the next beginners class, as well as a level two offering. It’s good to be back in the saddle again. I really enjoy sharing my enthusiasm for painting.
Oh, I’d soooo love to be able to attend one of your classes! Too bad we’re a continent apart…. But break a leg, I know people will be lucky to have you teach them how to make such beautiful things!
Lovely! That makes me want to get my paints out and, well, paint!
Good for you! It looks like a wonderful project.. wish I lived closer 🙂
Welcome Spring is beautiful!
