    Portraits are intimidating, but they can be broken down into easy to learn concepts that apply to all painting, and the smaller, fun portraits we will work on will take the fear out of the process. 


    Sally will provide all the supplies you need, but of course you are welcome to bring your own. There will be a short lesson on a key concept, and then you will have time to progress at your own pace. These classes are designed for beginner and intermediate skill sets.

    Classes take place at the TWAL Studio:                                                                              701 Sawdust Rd, The Woodlands, TX 77380

    Find out how neurographic/doodle art can motivate and benefit you to embrace your own challenges with creativity and resilience.

    Neurographic art involves drawing freeform lines (also called "neuro lines") and shapes, and then transforming those lines by rounding off corners and intersections. The process is intended to be a meditative and creative experience, potentially leading to relaxation, stress reduction, and a deeper connection with oneself.


    Jeff will share his extraordinary story of overcoming extreme adversity while turning his experiences into personal masterpieces and finding solace in the creative process itself. You’ll have an unforgettable experience that leaves a lasting impact.

    Classes will be held on Mondays for 12 weeks starting in late June, and you are welcome to attend all or some. Please Register for each class individually.

    In this class you will learn how to paint with soft pastels without having to purchase expensive materials and supplies.  We will cover all related topics, such as drawing, composition, color wheel basics, mixing colors and much more as we work. This class is suitable for beginners and intermediate level students. We will start with simple sketches to learn how to apply pastels and progress to more complex paintings. 

    Each student will be provided with a professional pastel paper and a limited palette of hard and soft pastels during class. You are welcome to bring your own supplies that you are comfortable working with. We will work on some projects together, using the instructor’s references, and on individual projects of your choice based on your own interest in a subject matter. I will help you every step on the way. The objective for this class is that each student enjoys creativity and self-expression and develops his or her own style.  

    The class is offered on Thursday mornings, the cost of the class includes 3 (three) 2-hour classes. If you miss the class, please request a make-up lesson, there will be no refunds for missed classes.  Make-up classes are usually offered on Fridays.

    November 6, 13, and 20 from 10:00 am till 12:00 pm.

    Cost $135 for WAL members or $165 for nonmembers.
