Class Instruction in Alamosa, Colorado:

Coni teaches year around adult Painting classes through the Alamosa Family Recreation Center. 

Classes are usually offered in 8 week sessions, beginning in January. 

Class meetings address foundational painting skills such as design and composition, color mixing, and brush work,  - and lessons get us painting landscape, portrait, animals, and still life.

Classes are not consecutive but continuous in nature, serving students at all levels.  Advanced painters improve while new students jump in without missing out on basics.
