Our plan is to develop confidence and to make painting a fun experience. Students become familiar with basic brushes, the palette knife, composition, contrast and blending colors. We begin with simple landscape paintings (students don't have to focus on fixed placement or structure as with complex objects or forms).

Through all of it, artists have sought to explain and picture the mystery of the heavens. We will examine their work and “The One who leads forth their host by number, who calls them all by name” (Isa.40:26) will be our guide.
