Join Tom Wheeler and learn oil painting techniques for painting rocks, water and rivers of the pacific northwest. Tom has been painting northwest subjects for over 30 years. Learn how to capture river scenes with rocks both under and above the water.

We will also discuss oil set-up, brush types and their purposes, painting strategy: (how to begin the painting, analyzing a scene, how to establish layers and details), colors and color mixing, oil mediums and solvents, how to clean up and care for equipment.

This class will be in 2 sessions, each $50. Members can sign up for one or both. Session 2 will be a continuation of session 1, where we will continue working on the same painting. 

Members need to attend at least session 1 (you can’t only do session 2). Both classes will be held at Cheryl’s Art Barn

Session 1: Jan 25 1-3:30pm
Session 2: Feb 1, 1-3:30pm
