Acrylic Painting with Linda

$33

with Linda Vorderer

Calendar Current session started Sep 8, 2025 at 3:30 pm
11 additional sessions through Dec 22, 2025

Welcome to acrylic painting! Using acrylics is similar to both watercolor and oil painting. The paint can be applied thinly as in watercolor techniques. Also, it can be applied thickly (impasto) and layered as in oil painting. Or, you can combine both approaches. It is very versatile and an enjoyable way into learning to paint. 

Instructor, Linda Vorderer, will lead you through the first basic techniques. Then she uses an individualized approach addressing what each participant is aiming to learn and do. Beginners are welcome, as are more experienced painters. We learn from each other. So, gift yourself this time to relax and enjoy the process of creating. 

Participants must purchase their own supplies before the first class or bring what you already have. We will discuss. A supply list will be provided once you register online.
