Time: 6 pm to 9 pm

Barb tries to help students find their own personality as a painter. The main tool she uses to instruct is The Elements of Design of which – Colour, Shape and Values (lights/darks, shadows and highlights) are most important.

Each student can choose a subject they are interested in painting. There is no set pattern in her classes. Week 1 and 2 are set up in a rather loose format. Each student is an individual and some have more experience than others.

Barb follows each student according to their progress one on one, trying to understand what they are interested in painting and what they want and need to learn. (No class June 14)

Barbara Palmer has been painting and drawing since childhood, studying at NS College of Art and Design and the Montreal Museum of Fine Art. She has exhibited locally at CB University, Cape Breton Centre for Craft & Design, and has sold her work worldwide. She currently lives in Sydney.
