Shelburne Craft School

Learn the basics of painting in either oil or acrylic. This course will cover composition, color, and light while developing an intuitive, curiosity-based approach to expression. Each class begins with a short lesson on a particular point, after which students will paint together in our bunkhouse while receiving expert feedback. Students will have the opportunity to work from a photograph, the mind's eye or a still life throughout the course.

At the end of the course, students can expect to have a sample of test paintings exhibiting a range of methods and techniques.
