Class: Classical Still Life Painting, Mar 16/23/30 2011 @ Spring Valley

If you are an occasional painter, or an artist longing to return to painting, or have never painted but would really like to try, join artist Elaine Kehew (www.enainekehew.com) for a three-session workshop on Classical Still Life (Nature Morte).
You can paint in acrylics or oils. The canvas and easel will be supplied. Participants will paint with a limited palette and a supply list will be provided before the first meeting. At the end of the three sessions you will have a finished, frame-able canvas that you can keep or give as a gift.
The still life is a basic building block for painters. The course will cover composition, notan, block-in, color and finishing. The workshop will be held at the artist’s spacious home studio, off Lower Kabete Road in Spring Valley.
The fee for the full workshop instruction is KSh 5,500 including paint and canvas. You will provide your own brushes and palette. Space is limited; call 0717 917 972 to reserve a seat today. For more information, email mail@elainekehew.com
