Explore the beauty of nature through paint during this fun, outdoor art experience with Kristin of Purple Paintbrush LLC. Learn simple acrylic painting techniques to break a scene into shapes, layers and colors, with an emphasis on creative interpretation rather than perfect realism. Working from a real outdoor view in the park, teens will build confidence in composition, color mixing and brushwork while creating a finished landscape painting on an 11x14 canvas to take home. No prior experience is required — just curiosity, imagination and a love of art. Please dress for the weather and bring a water bottle.
FIRST-TIME REGISTRANTS: If you are a Centerville/Washington Township resident, please enter Dayton as your city when creating an account. The system WILL NOT recognize you as a resident if you enter Centerville or Washington Township as your city.
