This June workshop is all about enjoying the process, personalizing your artwork, and expressing your unique style through abstract interpretations of beaches, water, and coastal light. Enjoy complimentary refreshments as you unwind, socialize, and create a one-of-a-kind piece inspired by the sights and feelings of summer by the shore.
Students will learn how to paint abstract seascape inspired designs using acrylic paints, exploring color blending, texture, and expressive brushwork. You’ll be encouraged to choose your own palette—whether soft ocean blues, warm sandy neutrals, or vibrant sunset tones—to make your painting truly yours.
What to Expect:
• Tips for working with acrylics and creating layered, fluid, expressive marks
• Guidance on building abstract compositions inspired by water, movement, and shoreline atmosphere
• Inspiration for selecting colors that reflect your personal connection to summer and the coast
• Plenty of time to paint, personalize, and enjoy the creative process
• A completed abstract beach/water painting to take home
Level: Beginner friendly and welcoming to all skill levels. Perfect for anyone who wants to explore acrylic painting in a fun, relaxed setting.
Age: Ages 16+
Supplies: All supplies are included in the class fee. Complimentary refreshments will be provided.
