Children's Classes with Meagan Robbins
June 14, 2022 10:30 am - 11:30 am
Art Central, 1329 Monterey St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401, USA
Enroll via @mcrobbinsstudios on Instagram or text:

Class Fee:
$25 per class, or $60 for the 3 June classes (Cash Check or Venmo)
Ages: 5+
Class limited to 12 students
Meagan is offering 3 classes – all will use 8×10″ canvas and acrylic paints. Each painting will include some type of sparkle/glitter at the end. “The reason I like to incorporate glitter is to give students the freedom to create designs with glue before bringing them to me. We add glitter, shake off the extra, and reveal their very own sparkly design and individuality.” All paintings work on strengthening a steady hand, along with learning the correct techniques of layering and mixing colors.
