Ostober Triple Treat
Ostober Triple Treat
Ostober is coming and what comes after that? The HOLIDAYS!!! Our OStober project this year is actually 3 separate projects you can paint to keep for yourself or share with friends and loved ones.
Join Kim for 3 Saturdays where we will complete each of these colorful Os designs. They are painted on 9 x 4 and 10 x 5 inch wooden plaques designed by Mike Lusk. We will complete two vertical designs and one horizontal design, one each week. And of course, if you can’t make it to a class you will always be able paint at your own pace from the recordings.

The class will be taught in oils but of course acrylic painters are always welcome!
