Working with Teresa

These intermediate workshops are led by studio founder Teresa Grasby. Teresa takes on the subjects artists find most challenging and shares the efficient process she has developed for them, worked in a loose, expressive style. Most artists use the four sessions to build one large-format canvas — a finished feature wall painting to take home.

Details

• Level: Intermediate — for artists who have completed our Beginners series, or who have equivalent experience
• Duration: 3 hours per workshop
• Class size: 8 artists maximum — small classes mean individual feedback throughout
• Location: Grasby Art Studio, 6520 Bowness Road NW, Calgary

Supplies

We provide the specialty tools, soft-bodied acrylics and a student-grade canvas for each workshop. For the best results we recommend bringing an artist-quality canvas and a basic heavy-bodied paint kit — the three primaries plus black and white, a small palette knife, a disposable palette and a variety of brushes. If you already own these, bring what you have. Canvases and individual supplies are at the front desk, and our Beginners Acrylic Supply Kit or Oil Supply Kit covers the whole kit list for $88.
