Acrylic Painting Basics
This 4-week studio course introduces learners to a range of drawing and painting materials through guided, hands-on projects. Participants will develop foundational skills in observation, color, light, shadow, and material processes while exploring pastel, watercolor, acrylic, and mixed media techniques in a supportive and engaging environment. Each session includes demonstrations, guided practice, and time to develop individual work.
