Painting with acrylics

Painting Butterflies

 

Evening Stroll on Beach

So we were so busy with classes, art shows and new animals at the farm that TIME slipped up on me!

But not to worry! The following are images of what our painters have been creating and they have been busy!

Whether you are experienced, a total beginner, 5 years old or 105, you will leave with a beautiful painting in just 2 hours!

Piglet in Acrylics

Acrylics are water soluable, easy to clean off of you (not your clothes) and dry quickly. That means you can paint oiver areas you may not like or add to areas that you have already painted!



So from Farm animals to insects, to beautiful scenes, to abstracts.......well we are painting it all!

Holiday Art Class

A Saturday in December is always a busy day everywhere  with parades, sports, parties and Christmas events. But we had participants come out to the Holiday Inn Express in Apex, NC to participate in a fun filled "Holiday Art Class" sponsored by the Apex Arts Council!
Each person decided what she would like to paint and brought along a photo. See the remarkable results below!

Whimsical POP Art PETS!

Nothing is more fun and less stressful than painting with no holds barred! No expectations, no predictable outcome! Bring a photo of a pet and turn it into a whimsical pop art experience! Why should Andy Warhol have all the fun?

See what others have created and enjoy!

Pop Art Pets AND Paint your Pet classes

POP ART PETS with Art Student Academy

POP ART PETS!

What a FUN class this was! And not as easy as you might think. It can be challenging to switch gears from realistic thinking to pop art thinking!

But I would say this group did it admirably!

The second collage is a few of the earlier group who worked diligently to Paint their own Pet!

The ORIGINAL "Paint your Pet" art classes with Art Student Academy!

We are the ORIGINAL "Paint your Pet" instructors and our students create lovely original art, by hand, without painting on top of a photo!
