In this one time class, in about an hour and thirty minutes, we will paint a fun and colorful background with a pot of gold using acrylic paint. I will be painting alongside you with step by step instructions, so that you can see exactly what to do. I will make sure the paint process will be just as fun as your master piece painting. Join in for a fun and relaxing art class. We will begin class by briefly discussing what brushes you'll need, colors of acrylic paint is needed, and see what happens when we add more water to the paint, Then follow along with me so that you can see what I do, as I show you how to create your masterpiece with full detail. Just a few more things to note: This class is an hour and a half long. We will be painting the entire time. The first 5 to 10 minutes we will cover the basics. Then we will proceed to make the painting. I will be painting, and demonstrating the process, and the learners will follow along with me. If a learner is not finished with their painting in an hour and a half, I am usually happy to stay an extra few minutes to help them finish up. It is important that we all start at the same time. If you know you might be 10 or more minutes delayed, please let me know, and we will work something out. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to mix colors, see what happens when we mix water to acrylic paints to see what it looks like on canvas. They will also learn the importance of taking care of their brushes when painting.

Supply List
#1. Paint: Acrylic paint in a variety of colors. You can purchase acrylic craft paint from your local craft store, such as Masters Touch Fine Art Studio paint or any brand you feel comfortable using. You should have the following colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Black, White, Brown, and Gold. Optional tools: Gold Sharpie Marker, Gold Glitter Glue #2. Paintbrushes: You will need a few different brushes. A large flat brush for large areas, such as backgrounds. A few smaller flat brushes (we use those for the majority of the painting). A medium and a small round tip brush for the final details. For most of my paintings I find that these brushes are enough: 3/4 flat, # 8 Flat, #6 Round, # 3 Round. #3. Canvas: Canvas board or stretch canvas work well. Size 8x10 Canvas. I will be using a canvas board #4. Palette: No need to buy a fancy pallet but if you have one that is fine. A paper plate, or a recycled plastic container will work well. #5. Cup with water to wash brushes in, an old towel, or paper towels to wipe the brush with. Don't forget to wear appropriate clothing for painting!
