Back to Fruits & More Course

by Kari Lynn M.

For those who can’t resist a crisp, juicy watermelon on a hot summer day… this is the perfect painting class for you!

In this acrylic painting class, you will learn how to create highlights and lowlights in objects, which we practice on both the inside “flesh” and outside “rind” of a cut watermelon. You will also find out how to mix up different hues of green and pink, and you’ll certainly be able to practice your blending skills.
