Class Instruction in Alamosa, Colorado
Coni teaches year around adult Painting classes through the Alamosa Family Recreation Center.
Classes are offered in 8 week Sessions, beginning in January.
Class meetings always 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, helping students at all levels. Advanced painters improve while new students jump in with out missing out on basics.
Summer and Fall Plein Air sessions.
In the Summer and Fall, all classes go out to paint en plein air in and around Alamosa.
Classes meet Tuesday Evenings from 6:30 - 9:30 pm and
Thursday Mornings from 9 am to noon.
Painters traveling thru the San Luis Valley or local painters who would like to join us for a morning or evening of plein air painting & instruction,
may do so for a $15.per-class-meeting fee. Contact Coni through this website.
