ATX Art Classes

Love Megans classes. She’s a wonderful artist who shares her awesome talent and all the wonderful things she’s learned from her mentor. Very excited to get to attend her paint 101. It’s hard to be humble and start from the beginning, just to ‘make sure I know my stuff’. But with Megan it’s easy. :) Looking forward to my many months of classes. After this I’m with her for Painting with the Masters. YAY!
(Oh, and the location, perfect for the energy and atmosphere of creativity.)

So much fun! A friend and I signed up for the Monet-​focused beginner painting class a couple of weeks ago and had a lot of fun.
Instructor Megan did a great job of introducing us to the concept of the color wheel and the process for sketching (tracing) a scene, color blocking and layering on the detail. Every step was well-​explained and completely manageable — even for a roomful of amateurs.
It was perfect for getting us started on the idea of painting — essentially taking some of the mystery out of how to go about color mixing and painting with acrylics on canvas.
Be warned: Taking a class with Megan will likely result in either an art class habit or the unshakeable desire to be creative. And either one can get pricey.
The only reason I’m not going all in with 5 stars is that I didn’t think the class was long enough. In all fairness, she offers additional sessions for you to come back and continue to paint with her around for support, but I was bummed when we left that we didn’t have the option to hang around for a bit longer.
