About this Event

Celebrate the beauty of spring as we paint lush, fragrant lilacs in vibrant shades of purple, lavender and soft blue! In this acrylic painting class, you’ll learn how to build rich layers of color, create depth with light and shadow, and use simple brush techniques to form delicate clusters of blossoms and fresh green leaves.

The bright background adds a cheerful, contemporary touch while allowing the lilacs to truly pop off the canvas. Step-by-step instruction will guide you through blending, highlighting and adding those final details that bring your flowers to life.

Perfect for all skill levels — whether you’re picking up a brush for the first time or looking to refine your floral techniques, you’ll leave with a beautiful spring-inspired painting ready to brighten your home or gift to someone special!
