Fun class that we will create a small gratitude board that you can hang notes on for yourself. This class is great for those that have little experience painting faces because you can use one of my templates. This is a great way to use up little scraps that you are always collecting and never seem to have any use for.

We will go over basics for stylized faces and adding lots of layers to your collage work. I will share some super easy tips and techniques so that even a beginner artist can create a face. This is also a great project I use to keep me working when I seem to be in a creative lull. Not only does it keep me painting and working, it makes me list on my gratitude board the things I am grateful for. This little painting can also be made over and over for Holiday gifts or special Thank You to friends and family.
