BIRCH TREES
                                                                              with Marilyn Dunn

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

Birch trees are a North American native and a subject that is oft painted on canvas.

Noted for their peeling bark that appears stark white with dark scars, they make the most attractive painting. Their canopy varies from lacy green in spring to a beautiful golden yellow in the fall sunlight. Regardless the time of year, the attractive trunks are always on display and quite visible.

In this program, Marilyn will share her techniques to help you create a beautiful picture like this. Marilyn is an accomplished painter. Notice this quick and easy acrylic painting is suitable for all levels as the background can be solid or as complex as you want. Marilyn guarantees no two paintings will be alike! You will enjoy painting with her.
