Meeting at Cape Coral Art League

Rock Painting (Acrylic)
HARD ROCK FUN!
                                                                                  with Madonna Williams

Due to a student artist with a serious allergy to certain painting products, we are asking that you refrain from bringing these with you into the classroom.

  • Turpinoid Natural by Martin Weber
  • Any Krylon product
Rock art is a centuries old art form that has seen a resurgence in popularity. Rocks make a great paint base as no two are exactly alike making rocks a bit like fingerprints.

The Calusa Nature Center will be the beneficiary of this project. These rocks turned into cacti that need never be watered will be donated to their GIFT SHOP.

Bonus projects included in this paint program are painted ladybug rocks and the famous burrowing owl found in Cape Coral.

Potted cacti, ladybugs and owls will add variety for sale in the Gift Shop and our painters will go home with a potted cactus rock, too.  Thanks go to our talented painters who support the community with their painting projects.      GROW OUR MEMBERSHIP …BRING A GUEST!
