2-Day Acrylic Exploration - Painting with Laura Miller
Class | Available
Have you ever stared at a blank canvas, wondering how to get started? Fret no more! In this class, you’ll learn not only the properties of acrylics and the tools and surfaces involved, but you’ll also be introduced to recommended preparations to take before starting a painting. We will engage in some fun warm-up studies, allowing us to experience the properties of the medium before committing to our composition. Concepts of value, color, textures, composition and brushes will be touched on, but the main goal will be to have fun with the medium!
All supplies included.
All Levels, ages 16 +
Laura Miller
I am a self-taught artist with a flair for color. I am a member of Oliver Art Center and Northport Art Association. I have been represented in my work by OAC, NAA and Glen Arbor Arts Center. The honor of winning the Tree City USA poster contest Frankfort for 2020, first place in 2D Art at OAC in the Juried Exhibition 2022, and First place Plein Air 2024 at OAC has been a delight and humbling experience. I continue to broaden my skills with any instruction given and with online class/workshops.
I see the world in full color. So much color, metaphorically. I can’t remember a time that art wasn’t a part of me. I grew up drawing, doodling, coloring, painting and creating things any chance I got. I would watch Bob Ross and buy every step by step painting book I could find in our little town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I was teaching myself at every opportunity.
I paint to feed my soul. I hope it feed yours, also.
