Join Art League instructor Alex Sharma for this 4-week palette knife class for all levels of students. We often think that the palette knife will only be useful for painting highly textured subjects or for working in a thick, impasto method. Imagine beautiful, smooth water with reflections, dramatic skies-- and everything in between. Once you learn how to hold and to load your palette knife with paint, these effects will seem to happen automatically as you paint. Each class will start with a demonstration and practice using a palette knife. We will paint from life or from your own photos.
