About the course

Painting is color, expressive and malleable. It is challenging, thought-provoking, and inspiring. Painting tells stories, expresses opinions, captures a likeness, records events, and gives vision to ideas. It is a passion that takes hard work and talent to master. Painting is a historically significant medium that shows us who we once were as people, and enables us to envision who we might become.
