Is There Anything I Cannot Bring to Sessions?
I
am very sensitive to chemicals and would like to keep an environmental
friendly atmosphere for all….therefore: I cannot allow turpentine or
brand “Turpenoid” , spray varnishes or other harsh smelling chemicals.
Did you know?…you do not need to paint with turpentine when using oil
paints? Infact: It muddy’s the paint! Try without it and you will be
amazed:)
Can We Bring Food and Drinks?
Yes,
please bring your food and drinks, but keep in mind strong smells. We
will at times have Pot Luck and other food/drink events too. I will
notify ahead when these fun, shared events occur. I do have access to a
refrigerator and microwave.
What Kind of Art/Paint supplies do I need to Bring?
Painting
is very individual in taste and preference. I will provide a
recommended list to “Private Instruction Students” upon registration and
any others requesting some direction in their supplies. All Artists are
responsible for their own art materials. I will supply water, coffee,
paper towels, bathrooms, occasional snacks, refrigerator, microwave and
background music. Recommended general things to bring: Paint brushes,
paints, paint mediums, pencil, canvas, paper, apron, rags, photo
references, plastic bags to take home dirty brushes, lunch, snack, drink
a pizza box or other to carry home wet art.
Can I Bring a Friend or Child?
If
you would like to show a friend/family member you may do so, on a
limited time basis. Please keep your visits to 10 minutes! We want to
keep this space vacant of outside disturbances.
A creative mind works out-loud on the brush, not the mouth.-Nicole Slater
Can I Arrive Early to Work on my Painting?
15
minutes to get set up is the only early time allowed. If you arrive any
earlier the “Loft“ will not be open and you will need to wait outside.
Can the “Artist Loft” times or days be Cancelled by the Instructor?
If

use your credit towards the next agreed session.
