Small Towns of America: A Painting Journey

In this brand new painting class, we’ll travel across the United States one charming town at a time - all through art.

Each week, students will explore a different small town known for its unique character, architecture, and atmosphere. From the sun-washed vineyards of Sonoma, California to the colorful hillside streets of Bisbee, Arizona, the coastal charm of Galveston, Texas, and the historic beauty of St. Augustine, Florida, every class will introduce a new location and a fresh painting.

We’ll focus on capturing what makes each place special - light, color, mood, and story. Along the way, students will strengthen their skills in composition, perspective, and color mixing while developing their own artistic voice.

This series is perfect for anyone who loves travel, storytelling, and discovering new places - no suitcase required. By the end of the session, you’ll have a collection of paintings inspired by some of America’s most beautiful small towns.

This class is fit for all skill levels and painting mediums, so whether you're a seasoned painter or just starting out, you'll feel right at home.

Please remember to bring your own painting supplies to class. For any questions, feel free to contact Erin directly. 🖌️✨

Plus, you can join at any time—late starts are prorated, so you won’t miss a beat. Come and unleash your creativity in a fun, supportive environment!
