B381 Summer Painting Workshop
with Erica Magnus
**Dairy Barn Members at the Individual Level or higher enjoy a 10% Discount**
For Ages 16+
Calling all painters! Elevate your skills in an exclusive, day-long workshop led by experienced Dairy Barn Teaching Artist, Erica Magnus. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned painter, this workshop promises inspiration and growth for all skill levels.
Erica will provide a fully arranged still life for you or you can choose from an assortment of available fabrics and objects to arrange yourself. You may also choose to bring an object of your own. The full afternoon time frame and small class size are designed for maximum productivity and the ability to fully develop a painting. With one-on-one mentorship from Erica, participants focus on managing the relationships of color and value (dark to light) and how to make them work together. Erica provides additional guidance on aspects of composition, perspective, proportion, and scale.
Participants need only bring their own brushes (see the class materials list for details.) All other materials, including canvas, oil paints, mineral spirits, and a table easel, are provided.
