May 20, 2026 Your Pet, In Paint
In celebration of National Pet Month, this session invites you to honor your pet… in paint.
(Not literally)—but translated through layered papers, color, and expressive paint techniques.
Participants create a one-of-a-kind mixed media canvas portrait using a personal photo as inspiration. Through guided instruction, students build their artwork in layers—combining collage, color exploration, and acrylic painting to capture both likeness and personality.
Rather than focusing on realism, this experience encourages creativity and interpretation, allowing each piece to feel unique and personal.
Held on National Rescue Dog Day, this experience offers a meaningful way to celebrate the animals who bring so much into our lives.

Painting Lowcountry Light - Acrylics
The Lowcountry surrounds us with colorful magic on a daily basis. Let’s paint it!
Participants create their own painted landscape on canvas using a favorite Lowcountry photo as inspiration — marsh, river, coastal sky, or any peaceful outdoor scene.
This is a guided painting experience with individual creative freedom. While everyone learns the same foundational techniques and follows the same simple process, each participant works from their own photo reference.

Painting Florals — Acrylics
Spring arrives in the Lowcountry with color, light, and fresh inspiration.
Participants create their own expressive floral painting while working from live flowers as reference. Rather than copying every detail, this experience introduces a painter’s approach to interpreting flowers through color, light, and atmosphere.
Students learn how artists simplify shapes, use warm and cool color relationships to create mood, and build softness and depth with layered brushwork. Simple compositional techniques help guide the viewer’s eye through the painting while allowing each participant’s interpretation to remain unique.
