See all- ACRYLIC PAINTING COURSERoundhouse Community Center, Vancouver, BC
Acrylic Painting for beginner and continuing students
Join me, professional artist Ania Salmina, for an acrylic painting course! You’ll learn essential techniques, explore the versatility of acrylics, and build confidence in your painting skills. As we create artwork, I’ll guide you through key topics such as composition, light and shadow, color theory, and more. We’ll begin with simple still lifes and gradually explore more complex subjects.
These classes are built on my 20 years of artistic experience and designed with a strong educational focus. Check my portfolio.REGISTER on Vancouver city website (follow this link)
