Painting Lessons with Geraldine

Picture
Enjoy painting lessons in small groups (4-6 participants) in my home.  Each lesson is a complete session.  Come during your holiday on PEI or attend the whole summer if you are residing here.

Begin with a warm up sketch or painting sketch to understand what you see and then move to a wood panel (8x10" or 11x14") for a finished piece using acrylic paint.  No experience necessary only a willingness to look and learn. 

Lessons are $35 / person and include all materials (brushes, acrylic paint, palette, pencils....)
Plan on 2-2.5 hrs per lesson.
Coffee time is included
Maximum six students per session

Location:  18 Broadway Rd., Hope River  Just off of RT 224 (St Mary's RD) direction Stanley Bridge 
902.621.0280
