Programme:

Come and join a stimulating acrylic painting class for adults, and make friends at the same time.

Suitable for beginners, more experienced artists, and those who just want to do something creative without any pressure. The subject theme will change every three weeks, and there will be different skill focuses each week (for example, blending one colour into another, layering, creating depth etc.)

Each class begins with an introduction and teaching focus, with demonstration and visual examples.

Each participant is given individual instruction, encouragement and attention from the teacher several times throughout each two-hour session.

She will show you how to work through any “mistakes”. At the end of each session there is an opportunity to look around other people’s work, offer feedback and celebrate each other’s art.

Materials you will need to bring:

  • Cass Art Liverpool branch are kindly giving all our dot-art students 10% off materials in store. Simply show your course tickets at the checkout to redeem this offer. You can browse and check stock here.
  • A set of acrylic paints: Titanium White, Primary yellow, Magenta or primary red, Process Cyan or Primary Blue are essential.
  • A set of assorted brushes: One round ended brush with a pointy tip is especially useful
  • A small oven tray, flat food container or palette
  • Baking paper to line your tray/palette (you will be shown a cheap, easy way to make a “stay wet” palette)
  • Kitchen roll
  • A4 or A3 mixed media or canvas paper suitable for acrylics, or small canvases/canvas boards if you can afford it
  • A softish drawing pencil, ideally 2B

Cancellations / Refunds:

Once you have made your course booking you are committed to it. This is because our courses have very small student numbers, and often sell-out and are unavailable to others. Therefore any cancellations may result in a place not being filled, or a course not being able to run.

Cancellations are permitted up to 30 days before the start of a course, and a full refund will be issued. Refunds will not be made for cancellations less than 30 days before the start of a course. If you are unable to attend due to illness, personal or professional commitments you do not have the right to a refund.

If you wish to cancel your place on a course that has not yet started and you have a friend or colleague who can take your place we can accommodate this substitution.

dot-art may use your details to contact you about forthcoming events, classes or developments that may be of interest.
