If you don’t have an artistic buddy, let me know your schedule and interests so I can pair you up with someone. That way I can offer classes for $15 per hr per person + materials.

Beginning Acrylic Painting- Each session will start with instruction and demonstration of several aspects such as colors, brushes, composition ,or techniques. Then, students can practice along with Chris on a scene with a sky, water, and trees or do their own painting with help as needed. Materials provided and included. Three 90 min. sessions per calendar month $80 per person with 2-5 students; $150 for private sessions. I find Joony art videos on YouTube very easy to follow and highly successful for beginners. I encourage you to explore these 10 min videos and then come for my help on painting a beautiful painting. You can also bring your own landscape photographs.

Wonderful Class and excellent instruction for a first time student as myself . Would recommend to anyone who is interested in learning acrylic paints and other techniques.

I took a class along with a friend with Chris and enjoyed it immensely. Chris had all the supplies ready and a suggested item to paint. My friend wanted to paint something different---Chris was able to easily switch gears and give us both guidance as we painted. Neither of us were experienced with painting, but we were pleased with our results!

I have taken watercolor classes with Chris. She is an excellent teacher with a lot of patience. I highly recommend taking any of her classes if you get the opportunity.
