Explore the beauty of Pointillism using acrylic paints. Pointillism is a painting style that builds an image through small, carefully placed dots of color rather than traditional brush strokes. When viewed from a distance, the dots visually blend together to create vibrant shapes, depth, and luminous color. You will work on one floral painting, gradually developing the composition from start to finish using the Pointillist technique. The instructor will guide you step-by-step throughout the process in a supportive, educational, and enjoyable environment. This class is perfect for beginners as well as anyone who would like to experiment with a unique and visually striking painting technique. A materials list can be found here. Limited to 15.
