I am starting a beginners class on weds 8th June at 10am.

The classes run for 3 hours every Wednesday Only 11 spots available. There is no need to sign up for a term, however if you miss a class you will have to catch up on your next attendance.

You will be learning the basics of colour mixing, using the colour wheel. Mixing paint, applying paint, basic drawing skills, blending paint and finally creating your own piece of art.

If you can already paint, feel free to join the class while you get on with painting your own piece. I will be there to give you help and advice along the way.

The cost is $35 per lesson, but only $25 if you provide your own acrylics and canvas.
If you would like to secure your spot I do require a $10 deposit. I will send you my bank account details if you would like to join up. Simply message me through my business FB page at artcsimpson.
Thank you
