120-Art from Your Start: Acrylic Painting from Start to Finish Session 1

Art From Your Start is your chance to explore art in a way that’s entirely your own. Under the guidance of artist Barbara Guerriero-Flites, students bring images that inspire them and, together, choose the project that best matches their experience and goals. Students create work that allows their unique style and imagination to shine in a relaxed, judgment-free environment. Barbara brings 30 years of teaching experience, a Master’s in Art Education, and degrees in Art History and Social Work, making her an expert mentor for guiding each student’s creative journey.
