Shirley Groody is the kind of artist who makes you believe you can paint that. She’s been teaching with adult education for many years and is a much-loved part of the PVAEC family. With her mix of creativity, encouragement, and a great sense of humor, Shirley makes every class feel welcoming and fun. No experience needed, just a willingness to try something new! All supplies are included but feel free to bring your own paintbrushes. In this cozy class, you’ll create two charming mini barn quilt paintings on 12x12 basswood panels with a beautiful decorative folk-art spin! You’ll customize your first barn quilt with your choice of a hand-painted loon, moose, or bear in the center. On your second quilt, you’ll paint a vibrant, geometric autumn star and hand-letter a seasonal saying (such as “Happy Fall Y’all”) right in the center. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced painter, this class is a fun and relaxing way to bring a little rustic charm into your home. All supplies are included. At the end of the registration, a pop up will appear for something called Active Advantage. This is not part of our program. It does not provide benefits for our students and it does not affect your enrollment in any way. Please click no and complete your registration. If you click yes by mistake, please contact PVAEC as soon as possible so we can help you cancel it.
