Acrylic pouring is a great way to create interesting texture, patterns, and marbleized effects. I will take you through the process of mixing acrylic paints to pour and the appropriate consistency for different types of pour painting. In this class we will use frisket paper to keep our whale intact as we pour the sky, clouds and ocean. We will use swipe technique as well as some traditional painting techniques for fine details of our whale. We will also splatter for splashing ocean as well. Each step you will be given options for how to proceed to make the painting your own and how you prefer. Often paintings are left overnight at the center to dry. No experience necessary.

Join award-winning painter Teresa Oaxaca for a two-day exploration of koi as a subject for oil painting. Through demonstrations, lectures, and individualized instruction, students will learn to create luminous water effects, convincing reflections, transparency, movement, and strong compositions inspired by these graceful fish. Beginning with the fundamentals of drawing and design, Teresa will demonstrate how to simplify complex water patterns into clear visual statements while building believable depth beneath the surface. Students will explore value, color harmony, edge control, and brushwork to create the illusion of light moving through water. Each student will complete a small- to medium-sized painting while developing techniques that can be applied to future paintings of water, flowers, wildlife, and other natural subjects.
