I created this blog in order to keep all my art students up to date on everything that is going on in my painting class in Michael's Arts & Crafts in Katy, Texas.
I began demonstrating acrylic painting in late 2010 in the store and created interest prior to the holiday shopping season but as most things in December, got stuck in the background within the store.
In 2011, the Painting with Suzanne class has begun a new day and time. We are now meeting 9:30-11:30 on Mondays. This seems to be the time most requested by everybody who has attended.
I am currently setting up a schedule for lessons for the next few months. There are some required lessons to follow from my sponsor, Grumbacher Paints and ChartPak Art Products.
This week, January 3, 2011, we will be painting a floral scene. You will need the following items in order to get the correct effect for the painting:
One painting kit from Grumbacher Paint which includes red, yellow, blue and white Academy Acrylic Paint, 2 brushes, 2 canvas boards, and one palette knife.
In addition to this kit you might want to bring a plastic cup, paper plate, and additional canvas boards as found in Michael's.
Other colors you might be interested in purchasing are Alizarin Crimson and Hooker's Green Academy Acrylic Paint. These two colors will be essential in getting the correct coloration for this painting.
At the end of the lesson you will have a painting you can take home and frame.
As I create the lesson plans, I will post them on this blog. Please follow the blog in order to get the latest update. Thank you for painting with Suzanne.
