About this event
One of 439 upcoming events at Alliance for the Arts, and 1,320 across Fort Myers.
Join artist Marilyn Hedlund for a dynamic, critique-based class designed to inspire artists of all levels. Each session begins and ends with lively group critiques where ideas, techniques, and feedback are shared freely in a supportive environment. Between critiques, you’ll work at your own station and pace, developing your artwork with personalized, one-on-one guidance from Marilyn. Expect to be challenged and inspired through stimulating discussions, creative assignments, and lecture/demos on essential topics like composition, form, color, and contrast. This is more than a class—it’s a creative community where fresh ideas, constructive critique, and artistic growth go hand in hand. Supply list: Paints – The quality of your paint may be the most important key to your success. Please don’t waste money on student or craft-grade paint.
