Description: 

NO supplies or experience required! Just show up and paint some of the most famous paintings in Canadian history! Emily Carr University instructor Michael Markowsky will introduce you to the basic acrylic painting materials, how to mix colours, and guide you to create simple paintings through step-by-step demonstrations in a relaxed, humorous and encouraging studio environment. Designed for people with little or no experience or those who need a refresher to get painting again! We will make paintings based on the work of Canada's famous "Group of Seven" artists, including Lawren Harris ("Mount Edith Cavell”), A.Y. Jackson (“Aurora”), Tom Thomson (“Canoe Lake”) and BC's own Emily Carr ("Mrs. Jones' Farm”). Registration Only Please - No Drop-ins. NO CLASS APRIL 2 or APRIL 9
