Come enjoy wine, music and friends while creating a personal masterpiece! Our artist will make painting easy and fun by instructing you step-by-step through re-creating this William Merritt Chase inspired painting. William was one of the most important painting instructors of his generation, teaching at the Art Students’ League of New York and later at his own Chase School of Art. Chase was an early proponent of plein air painting. His loose brushwork and bold use of color were very influential in turn-of-the-century America. Among his many outstanding pupils was Georgia O’Keefe. Chase was concerned with finding the beautiful in the beautiful. He did a number of famous paintings of the of the seashore on Long Island. Join us as we paint this relaxing beach scene. Whether you are an aspiring artist or just looking to explore your creative side, you are sure to go home with a painting that is uniquely yours. *Materials, wine, and refreshments are included in the cost of the class. *Must be 21 or older to register.
