A Painter's Class with Betsy Payne Cook

This is a six week class. 
This class will assist artists in developing skills to create better paintings, and is suitable for all painting mediums. The goal of this class will be to increase your awareness of the technical, creative and emotional components of the painting process, ultimately to help you make better artistic decisions. 
Artists new to pastel are welcome as this class can accommodate beginner pastelists. For all other mediums, you should have a working knowledge of the medium you will be using. 
Classes will include themes with warm-up exercises intended to develop a thoughtful approach to painting; such as necessary drawing skills, pre-planning for a painting, employing compositional structures, developing an “eye” for values & color. Artists will be encouraged to share, with critiques directed towards understanding and explaining the choices we make as artists.
