Acrylic Painting with Julie Larsson-Nov-2025
Artist League Class Red Barn Acrylic Class Saturday November 8, 2025
This class is a step by step tutorial using acrylic paints on an 8×10 inch canvas board.
Attention is given to mixing paint colors, using the right brush and other items including a
sponge, credit card/palette knife. Direction on use of light and shadow, perspective and
composition are also included in the process.
My goal is to encourage creative expression and success with demonstration of brush strokes,
starting with the background, then the mid-ground and then the foreground and details.
The minimum number of students is 7 and the maximum is 20.
The cost of the class is $30, this includes all materials; canvas, brushes, sponge, palette knife,
paint, palette, water cup, paper towel, painting example, and step by step directions.
