Kids PAINTING class comes to theArtery!

I am so excited to announce two dates for kids acrylic painting at theArtery!  I am teaming with the fabulous Lizzie Mara to finally bring painting to the kids.   This is a class NOT to be missed and space is limited!

Here is info on the class:

Students will explore techniques in using acrylic paint. We will explore the paint media on canvas. This class will also illuminate the importance of using the right brush and how to care for your brushes. The class goal will be to acquire new techniques for using paint to achieve various textures, line elements, & depth.
“My wish is to give kids an opportunity to explore and become comfortable with various media, the vernacular of art & composition, inspire kids to dream big & help build their confidence. I have a passion for helping students create works that are true keep sakes - using everyday exercises to make pieces that they can take home with immense pride.” –Lizzie Mara
CLASSES AT theArtery are being offered Monday, July 1st and again July 29th from 11-3PM !


About Lizzie:
I am Lizzie Mara; a professional mixed media artist + illustrator with a passion for color, teaching thoughtful allegorical composition, and design. I realized my love of art at the tender age of 3 in Montessori school and finished my B.A in fine art at the Lacoste School of the Arts in Lacoste, France. I have been teaching art lessons (private and group) from my home since 2005. My inspiration comes from flora and fauna, music and humanity. It is a true joy for me to share my love of the arts with children. Every class I teach becomes incredibly interdisciplinary - because art is essentially a mix of science, math and of course some poetry!
