Explore the beauty of floral still-life painting in this beginner-friendly oil painting class. Guided by local artist Jennifer Franzoni, students will learn how to use a viewfinder to create strong, visually engaging compositions while gaining confidence with foundational oil painting techniques.
The class will begin with sketching ideas inspired by blooming flowers and practicing color mixing. From there, students will transfer their compositions onto a prepared canvas board, learning how to observe negative space and build their paintings step by step. Instruction will cover brushwork, paint handling, and palette mixing, allowing each participant to develop their own unique piece at a comfortable pace.
Students may complete one to two paintings during the session, depending on their workflow. All canvas materials are provided—just bring your creativity and enjoy a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
