    In this class you will learn step-by-step techniques that will enable you to create successful paintings. Through a series of structured processes you will gain knowledge of contemporary concepts such as organizing composition, establishing space, and color complexity. Students will be introduced to exciting techniques such as classical realism and alla prima. This class is intended to bring out your inner talent; you will be surprised how complex your paintings will become with the addition of simple structure.
