Hi everyone,

We have finalized the schedule for our upcoming Winter Term and are looking forward to seeing some old and new faces when classes begin in January. We will be expanding our popular Intro to Oil class to include a second four-week course, Intro to Oil II: Color Harmony. We will also be introducing Drawing the Head and Hands, which will run alongside our Portrait Painting class. The full schedule can be found below.

We'd also like to invite you all to an open house to celebrate the start of the new term. The open house will be on Saturday, January 10th, at 8pm in our studio in the Brew House. We'll be holding a free open model session and will provide light refreshments, so you can check out the studio and paint or draw if you'd like.

Please visit our website at www.academyofthesouthside.com for complete details and registration. As always, feel free to forward this on to others who may be interested, and if you have any questions, just let us know.
