Paint-a-Learn Event
Have you always wanted to learn how to paint but felt too intimidated to begin? Now is
your opportunity to discover the joy of painting in a fun, supportive environment with
professional artist and teacher Juan Peña.
Join us for a special “Paint-a-Learn” event. Whether you are a complete beginner or simply looking to grow your artistic skills, this hands-on experience will inspire your creativity and build your confidence. You will be using acrylic paint on canvas. Juan is a master watercolor painter that will be using acrylic paint to show you how to paint a watercolor. Juan's principles are a stepping stone to learning how to paint in watercolor.
During this interactive workshop, Juan Peña will teach his unique approach to color mixing using a remarkably simple palette of just three colors plus white. Juan has successfully used this limited palette in watercolor, acrylic, and oil painting since 1968. His proven principles can also be applied to many other artistic mediums, making this class valuable for artists of all levels.
Juan’s artistic methods are also featured in his book, “The Miracle Three.” Additional
information about the book can be found on his website.
