Join this fun 2-day workshop to learn how to finger paint! All levels are welcome!Each day is spent painting with instruction until around 2:30 followed by an optional hour of critique and ending the day around 3:30. Day One – Kimberly will lead students through preparing a background and placing elements for a vineyard composition. By end of Day One, students will have a prepped canvas and the background to build and finish the painting on Day Two. Day Two – Students will begin to add elements and texture to their prepped canvases, continuing with Kimberly’s step by step instruction. Students will have an introduction into perspective and color placement to create depth.
