This class is designed for bokeh enthusiasts, featuring soft, distant lights that invoke a dreamy ambiance. Whether on a sunny beach or a night highway, we will explore techniques to replicate this stunning effect using lots of blending and blurring. This class is perfect for beginners as well as advanced painters. Canvas and paints are supplied.

In this class, open to all levels, students will learn to paint rocks as expressive elements within a landscape. We’ll explore structure, texture, light, and shadow to capture their weight and character. Open to all paint mediums. Upon registration a simple list of materials will be sent out.

Have clothes that need mending? Come learn sashiko, the Japanese art of visible mending where we will patch our garments with a purposefully visible stitch to strengthen and beautify them all at once. Students will each receive needles, thread, a patch, and a take-home guide. Please bring a ruler, scissors, sewing pins, and your garment of choice (denim preferred). A $25 materials fee, payable to the instructor, must be paid the first night of class.

Join Catherine for this 1 night class to learn new ways to incorporate mixed media techniques in your work. Create depth, texture and interest with gouache, fluid acrylic, colored pencils, watercolor pencils, dual tipped markers and posca pens (and more). Class will start with a refresher on color and techniques covered in previous levels and then transition to discuss new ways to think about layers while introducing various mixed media supplies. We will spend the rest of class playing with a variety of materials to incorporate new and old techniques to complete a fun and uplifting illustration. Materials fee: $20 (payable to the instructor).

In this class, open to all levels, students will learn to see the elements of composition directly in the landscape and bring them to their canvases. Open to all paint mediums. Upon registration a list of materials will be sent out. (Park admission is not included in the fee)
