ArtLabs are 1.5 hour online painting classes that focus on an artist or technique using Right-brain painting methods. Each ArtLab begins with an information slideshow and lecture before you begin painting or drawing. All levels are welcome because you’ll get personalized feedback depending on what you need to improve.
ArtLabs range from drawing fundamentals to pet portraits, to creating abstracts. New ArtLabs for beginners and aspiring artists are introduced each month.

Q&A
-
I see that ArtLabs are usually two parts – what if I miss the first part?
It’s recommended that you attend the first session, however if you have to miss it, you can join in the second session. The instructor will review the technique with a slideshow to catch you up. If you have additional questions, you will have the opportunity to ask in real time.

What supplies will I need?
Supplies differ depending on the class. The supplies is listed in the class description (which you’ll find if you go to our schedule and click on the class you’re registered for.) You’ll also receive an email with the supplies you need.
-
What if I don’t have the exact supplies listed?
We understand that some will not have every medium, that’s why we’ve developed techniques that work no matter what medium you’re using. If the class supplies are acrylic, you can usually substitute it for gouache, watercolors, or tempera. Feel free to email us at hello@primamateriainstitute.com or call 619-630-9278 to ask what substitutes work for the technique.
