SPRING HILL, TN
"Painting with Susan" Painting Workshops and Weekly Classes
I teach the noble-hearted to develop their creative spirits and use their artistry to sprinkle joy and to live a full, amplified life. Join me, won't you, for Painting with Susan and attend painting classes offered in acrylics, watercolors, and occasionally in oils in Spring Hill, mostly at our Winchester location or other places where noted. Help your skills catch up with your creative vision, have some laughs, make new friends, and create a colorful legacy!
Beginners are welcomed. The only requirements are passion for painting and curiosity for the joy that only comes from creating. I want to help every student discover his or her individual artistic personality and learn to build a personal process for painting.
Whether you choose a workshop or the on-going weekly lessons, claim your artistic license and let me help you paint from the heart using logical steps to create paintings you'll be proud of and will help you paint your artistic vision. Anyone can paint. All it takes is a knowledgeable teacher with a heart for students and a little practice. You'll get both in any of my classes.
Most painting classes are offered in the lower level of the Winchester Building located at 563 Maury Hill Street behind Spring Hill Elementary in Evan's Park. Monthly watercolor classes are taught at The Lodge of Southern Springs at 2000 Southern Springs Parkway.
Please call 615-668-8263 to register or for more information.
