Melissa Piva's Abstract Painting Class - more info

Just some clarification regarding this exciting class - your abstract paining can be a portrait, landscape, flower, animal or anything you wish. Feel free to bring a picture with you. Read the message below from the teacher:

"In this class we will explore using brush-strokes to create an abstract or impressionistic painting. You can paint a portrait, landscape, flower, animal, or anything you wish. You can create a piece that features a recognizable image or a piece that consists of shapes, shadows and color with no precise "form". You will work at whatever level you are comfortable with. We want this class to be comfortable, colorful, and fun!"
