In this hands-on painting and learning program, you will learn to paint in the styles of famous artists, while hearing stories about “the characters behind the canvas”.

Living in a modern world filled with "selfie" portraits, we will create our own selfies in the iconic style of Henri Matisse. 

Becky Andersen will keep the class fun by uncovering scandalous secrets about the artist throughout the process. There will be mistresses, mischief and more! Feel free to BYOB, though the fee covers all the materials plus wine. 

No experience necessary. Becky is a seasoned educator and will guide you along every step of the way. Register in advance by Monday of that week.
