What you'll do
Join me in my artist studio to learn to draw and paint a photograph of your choice. You don't need previous art experience (though it doesn't hurt), just a willingness to learn. I'll provide all materials and refreshments, including a selection of my favorite local wines and cheese. You'll walk out with a 9 x 12 inch painting you've made yourself.
Other things to note
You'll need to arrange your own transportation to North Portland.

Where you'll be
The entire immersion experience will take place in my professional art studio - a converted garage - in North Portland's historic University Park neighborhood. You'll experience a real working artist environment.
It was a wonderful experience. Leah broke down the drawing process to lower our anxieties and worries about “messing up”. I ended up with a piece of art I would never have guessed I could create. Definitely an experience that will help you plumb the inner creativity inside of you.

Leah is a great teacher. Two of us took her painting class with zero experience and walked away with a great desire to learn more (and a couple of not-terrible paintings!) I enjoyed listening to her thoughts about how art can reshape your way of thinking. I definitely want to take another class from her.

This class was a great time! I really enjoyed the experience, and had a blast (re)learning to draw, and eventually watercolor. I had a little bit of prior experience (totally not necessary for this class), and Leah really helped to cater the lesson accordingly. Oh, and the snacks were delicious, the beverages were cold, and the company was awesome - what more could you ask for on a Saturday afternoon?! Highly recommend booking this Experience!

Leah was very knowledgeable and as someone who has never picked up a paint brush before, her basic teachings on drawing and painting was a total surprise. Very happy with how the class turned out, the mood was relaxed and the end result fun. Would definitely recommend for others interested in getting their feet wet somewhere.
