Paint a Picture--Photographic Painting and Capturing Moments
If a picture is worth a thousand words, a painted picture is even better! This workshop will walk students through the process of making a painting from an image of their choice, depicting a memory or experience they would love to immortalize on a canvas. Using acrylic paint, students will gain experience and receive guidance through the technical process, the practice of decision making in painting, and how to elevate a painting to more than just “a painting of a picture” but rather, a memory that lives on.
