​This is for oil and acrylic painters of all levels.  What secrets do the old masters hold? In fact they have encountered every painter problem you have and resolved it brilliantly. We just have to analyze their paintings.  We will spend 15 minutes of every class considering paintings from different masters.  You are free to make a copy of an old master painting or choose your own.
