Adult Classes
I am dedicated to shortening the learning curve for my students with a simple approach to painting that is also easy to remember. In my classes I often see students make big advances in their skill set and in their confidence. But don’t just take my word for it, here is a lovely testimonial from a student:
“Suzanne is an incredible artist and an equally skilled teacher. Her lesson structure is clear and easy to follow and will take you from a blank canvas to a complete painting with plenty of help and shared knowledge along the way.
Taking a class with Suzanne is a wonderful way to start or expand your art practice.” - Kris L

Do you want to learn how to paint in oils but don’t know how to get started? Or perhaps you have taken some classes in the past but are not sure how to begin again? Then the “Beginner Beginner” Adult Painting Boot Camp is for you!
This is my solution to a “Sip & Paint” style class with one clear difference, you will actually learn how to paint in mine—not just copy someone else’s painting. All materials will be provided. Makes for a fun night out with friends. And you are welcome to bring your own beverage and snacks if you want!
During this fun monthly, 3.5 hour themed class, you will create your own 4 x 4 inch still life painting from observation while learning the fundamentals of drawing and painting.
Mature Teens are also welcome in this class.
