April 15th: Collage: Inspired by Georges Braque’s Birds
This class will introduce participants to collage techniques while exploring the work of Georges Braque, a co-founder of Cubism known for his elegant bird motifs.

Participants will learn to paint lush countryside scenes, capturing light, depth, and movement in nature using watercolor techniques.
April 29th: Oil Pastel: Portraits Inspired by André Derain & Fauvism
In this session, participants will create bold, expressive portraits inspired by André Derain and the Fauvist movement. They will explore vivid, non-traditional colors, strong outlines, and energetic mark-making, capturing the essence of a subject rather than realistic details.
