Winter Classes 2010


January is always a popular month to take classes, its all about the new start I guess...the new year is a perfect time to try something new you have always wanted to do!
I have been having a lot of fun teaching mixed media classes lately but my schedule after Christmas is all about beginner classes. There are a few of my students who just sign up for anything I am offering just because they like me :) Anyone who wants to work on their own projects with my feedback and guidance is always welcome to sign up for any of my classes, they do not have to follow the lesson plan.
If you have weekday mornings free you might be interested in one of these three eight session offerings
First Steps in Watercolour at Island Blue Tuesdays 9:30-Noon
Hands on Watercolours at Henderson Recreation Centre Mondays 9:30-Noon
Beginner Acrylics Thursdays at Island Blue 9:30-Noon

If you can spare Four Sundays, I am teaching a crash course in Hands On Acrylics
1:30 to 4pm at the Monterey Centre in Oak Bay starting January 24th
