Description

Class Experience

Don't you just love rocks and crystals?  I do!  In this class you get to create a beautiful painting of your birth stone, or another person's stone as a gift to them.

Week 1:
This week is all about getting to know our birthstones and looking at images of them, both artistically represented and real images.  We will look at color and styling.  Then, we will take a look at our resources and begin sketching our drawing of geometric stones.  Once finished, we will put on our first layer of paint...
