Description

NO supplies or experience required! Just show up and paint some of history's most famous portrait paintings! Emily Carr University of Art instructor Michael Markowsky will introduce you to the basic acrylic painting materials, how to mix colours, and guide you to create simple paintings through step-by-step demonstrations in a relaxed, humorous and encouraging studio environment. Designed for people with little or no experience or those who need a refresher to get painting again! We will make paintings based on the work of Vermeer (“Girl with a Pearl Earring”), Pablo Picasso (“Old Guitarist”), Amedeo Modigliani ("Woman with Red Hair”), Vincent Van Gogh (“Self-Portrait”), Frida Kahlo (“Self-Portrait”), Mary Cassatt (“Smiling Child”), and/or Henri Matisse (“Green Stripe”).
