Palette Knife Painting
with Laurie Moore
Come explore painting with a palette knife! We will start with simple landscapes, and you will learn how to block in shapes and mix paint for that beautiful sky with maybe a few clouds. From distant mountains to foreground color will be the key. You can be as abstract (loose) as you feel comfortable or detailed (tight) if that is your style. No previous experience necessary, and as easy as spreading butter.
