The session will open with a brief tour of the Gallery, followed by a very basic introduction to three painting mediums: acrylic, pastel and watercolor. After meeting the mediums, members will go hands-on to create at least one small painting and/or greeting card employing one or more paint mediums. Participants will leave the Gallery with at least one small completed painting suitable for framing and/or a hand-painted greeting card and envelope. No painting experience necessary!

Jen Cavanaugh is a retired vocal music teacher who decided - with a great start from SOAR - to take up painting. She has taken classes in watercolor and pastel, but is largely self-taught. Born and raised in Potsdam she and her husband now live in Waddington where she is an artist member of the Gallery at Lake St. Lawrence Arts.
