    Announcing the Traditions Painting Education Program:

    A developmental decorative painting program for all skill levels from beginner to advanced.

    If you are a beginning painter interested in learning the art of decorative painting or a "seasoned" painter who has begun to look for more, this is the series for you: spend an evening a week in the company of other artists exploring your inner creativity and investing in your art education with the Traditions Painting Education Program.

    While painting beautiful trays, trunks, and other surfaces for your home, this system will take you from the basics to the advanced in painting techniques as well as fill in the blanks and provide the advanced painter with the knowledge that was missed while just painting projects.

    The Traditions course is a sequential program consisting of 3 sections (A, B, and C) with 10 lessons in each section (for a total of 30 lessons) that gradually increase in difficulty and skill level. Along the way, you will enjoy the camaraderie of other students, the joy of creativity and the rich history of the decorative painting styles.

    Intermediate Level Classes:

    The section B classes are especially appropriate for individuals who have painted for several years using acrylics and have developed such skills as puddling, transparent painting, floating, mixing and toning paint, painting stroke work, stippling, dry brushing and washing. The section B classes are broken in to 3 six week sessions and will result in 8 finished pieces. The pieces and the techniques covered can be viewed by clicking on the following link:

    Section B

    The first six week session will be held on Thursday evenings from 6:00-8:00 beginning on September 18 and ending on October 23. Tuition for each six week session is $80.00 and includes over 12 hours of instruction, instructional packets, photos and the instructional fee. Surface costs are in addition to the tuition and will be posted several weeks prior to the first class.

    Paint

    It is a requirement of the Traditions Painting Education Program that each student must paint with the Traditions line. It is the finest quality acrylic which includes top-of-the-line pigments that enable a small drop of paint to cover three times the surface of other paints. The colors never fade and include properties that enable a decorative artist to complete techniques never before possible using an acrylic. We stock the entire line and also offer an economical beginner's ten-pack.
