Let’s Make Stuff! Easy Intro to Oil Painting
August 21, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Join us for Let’s Make Stuff! to get crafty and learn something new. Always been interested in oil painting but too intimidated to give it a go? Let’s say goodbye to oil paint anxiety and learn the basics in this fun, relaxed program at Park Grove Library. We will paint a simple still life subject on either panel or canvas using oil paint and gamsol odorless mineral spirits. Our teaching artist will explain how to handle these materials like a pro, what to be careful of when oil painting at home, and why oil paint is unlike any other kind of paint on the market.
Participants will walk away with an appreciation of the medium, the knowledge to start oil painting on their own, and a beautiful work of painted art.
Let’s Make Stuff is a creative class for adults. Each class will feature a different project. Registration is required for this class.
This program is funded with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
