Basic Principles of Direct Painting - Starts Mon

This class at the Brambleton Center is directed to intermediate painters although it is open to all skill levels. The objective is to equip you with the skills necessary to paint any subject on your own. Composition, drawing, and edges will be addressed along with the principles of light, shadow and value but the main focus will be on color - how to see it and mix it. You will paint a color chart and by the end of the course will be painting a simple still life. Five week program. Register Online Here

Boutique Style Kid's Clothes Class - Next Tues

Some of the best kids fashions are those you can't buy anywhere else. They're designer clothes made by talented and thrifty moms, aunts, grandmothers and friends or they're purchased from crafters and specialty stores that feature hand made clothing. You don't need to be a professional seamstress to create wonderful one-of-a-kind wearables. You can start with store-bought (even second-hand) basic pieces then embellish, embroider, trim or change buttons and VOILA! you have a designer fashion for your favorite little one. A supply list will be furnished upon registration. Register Online Here
