Abstract Oils with Cold Wax Medium and Mixed Media
About
A Friday studio course that combines oil paint with cold wax medium and layers in acrylic, charcoal, pastel, ink and collage, with the emphasis on experimenting with texture, color and form to build abstract "inner landscapes." Fridays October 30 through December 11, 10 am–2 pm, in room LB3201 at North Seattle College, 9600 College Way N, about a 10-minute walk from Northgate Station (1 Line) over the pedestrian bridge. $340; a supply list is required.

New to painting?
Painting and drawing classes run from relaxed one-night sessions that guide you to a finished canvas to multi-week courses in watercolour, oils, figure drawing or illustration.
- Guided one-night classes suit groups and first-timers; courses suit people who want to improve.
- Figure-drawing sessions use a live model and are usually for adults only.
- Materials are usually included in one-off classes; courses often send a supply list.
Taking it home: The same day, though acrylic and oil may need a few hours to dry before they travel well.
