About this Event
This Wednesday evening art class is designed to teach you some art history and give you confidence in painting, whether you’ve never picked up a brush or you’ve been painting for years. Each class breaks down art concepts into easy-to-follow, guided experiences that feel accessible, playful, and freeing. Advanced painters and total newbies consistently enjoy the class together, side by side.
Every class begins with gentle instruction and storytelling around the inspiration, followed by generous painting time. We close with a review where your artwork is described as if it’s one of the most significant paintings in the art world—because in that moment, it is.
You’ll leave feeling relaxed, smarter, and maybe a little proud.
Past participants have called the class “life-changing” and “the perfect blend of instruction and freedom.”
Location:
4321 Bridge Ave — in the community room of a beautiful old church with tall ceilings, candles, and twinkle lights. The building sits directly across from Mason’s Creamery, which also serves gourmet ramen, making this the perfect cozy, creative evening out.
Walk-Ins welcome to come and pay in cash or venmo.
Instructor
Your instructor is a lifelong artist who specializes in quieting the inner voice that says you’re not good at art. She creates a welcoming, safe space where creativity feels natural, and judgment disappears.
Come feel cozy.
Come paint.
Come surprise yourself.
In This Class: Masks
We'll be learning about masks on display at the Cleveland Museum of Art from North America, South America and West Africa. Why were they used, what did they represent, and what did they impart onto the wearer that we can absorb as mask painters?
Across the Northwest Coast, native people engaged in renewal rites during the winter ceremonial season. This mask, with a beak that opens and head panels that move, may have been used during such celebrations. In 1998, Robert Joseph, a Northwest Coast chief, recalled that when he donned dance masks like this one as a youth, "all the world is somewhere else . . . I am the mask . . . the bird . . . the animal . . . the spirit. I transcend into the being of the mask."
