Art Classes at the Bay Breeze Art Gallery




Art Classes are up and running again at the Bay Breeze Art Gallery!
We have a lot more interest for the contemporary acrylic painting classes which are based on the principles taught by American Artist Robert Burridge. This is an upbeat class with music to get you moving! Here we break a lot of the rules previously set out in traditional approaches to art making. Want to varnish a water-colour? Why not! Want to drip, splatter, throw and paint with your fingers? Yes, you may! Energy and freedom are the key of achieving great success and enjoyment in creating your own unique style of art.
The next session of these classes may be in the form of 3 or 4 day workshops in the Spring.
Besides this we are offering, Formal Drawing classes on Wednesday nights and Intermediate
Water-colours on Tuesday mornings. In the Water-colour class we are experimenting with some new and adventurous techniques as well, such as working with syringes and needles to spray the water-colour on our paper randomly to create unique effects.
My Little Kids and Big Kids art classes did not go this session due to low registration but I am keeping my hand in Children's art by teaching a fun class with grade 3's at a local school.
Stay tuned for further announcements!
