From 6:00 - 8:00pm

Botanicals in Acrylics

Botanicals in Acrylics is taught by local acrylic painter and botanist Erynn McNeill of Up Moss Creek Studio. In their 2 hour art classes students are guided through traditional botanical illustration techniques including color theory with a focus on natural tones and greens, composition, light and shadow, and labeling. Their classes begin with students choosing their own plant from around the shop, followed by step by step instructions between focused painting time. By the end of the class participants go home with a unique botanical illustration of their very own.
