Join us for a 3-hour workshop on Sunday May 10, 2020 from 1-4PM (EST). A ZOOM Online Workshop in the comfort of your own home:
Mother's Day Flower Painting
For Mother's Day we've put together a special workshop for you to share with your Mom. Quin Stone, artist and PAFA Alumni, will lead a Flower Painting Workshop. Take out your oil paints or acrylics and join us for an afternoon of painting. This workshop is a wonderful gift and a great way to spend some quality time with your Mother, especially if you are not able to visit her.
And if you are a Mom, ask for 3 peaceful hours of creating as a Mother's Day gift! Of course, non-Moms and flower lovers of any persuasion are also welcome!
How Will It Work?
You will follow along step-by-step with Quin as he plans the composition, mixes colors and paints the floral image. We will work from a photograph so you can refer to it as well as the live painting on ZOOM. We will provide the image to you so you can print it before the class if you want to. We find that using a desktop work station or a laptop gives you more ZOOM viewing options and results in a better class experience.
