Creativity & Classic Art Class | Acrylic Paint | "Wrestlers in a Circus"

This Wednesday evening art class is designed to teach you some art history and give you confidence in painting, whether you’ve never picked up a brush or you’ve been painting for years.

Each class breaks down professional art concepts into easy-to-follow, guided experiences that feel accessible, playful, and freeing. Advanced painters and total newbies consistently enjoy the class together, side by side.

Every class begins with gentle instruction and storytelling around the inspiration, followed by generous painting time. We close with a review where your artwork is described as if it’s one of the most significant paintings in the art world—because in that moment, it is.

You’ll leave feeling relaxed, smarter, and maybe a little proud.

Location:
4321 Bridge Ave — in the community room of a beautiful old church with tall ceilings, candles, and twinkle lights. The building sits directly across from Mason’s Creamery, which also serves gourmet ramen, making this the perfect cozy, creative evening out.

Past participants have called the class “life-changing” and “the perfect blend of instruction and freedom.”

Your instructor is a lifelong artist who specializes in quieting the inner voice that says you’re not good at art. She creates a welcoming, safe space where creativity feels natural, and judgment disappears.

Come feel cozy.
Come paint.
Come surprise yourself.

Wrestlers in a Circus, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
Locked in an active embrace, wrestlers rock on a brightly colored mat. Famous for his scenes of urban life, Kirchner uses loose brushstrokes to capture the blur of bodies in motion. The Nazi party labeled Kirchner's work "degenerate" in 1933, and in 1937 more than 600 of his works were sold or destroyed.
