Flowers & Friends Partner Painting (Ages 5+ w/Adult) - NEW!

Join us for a fun-filled morning of painting with your child! This class is all about spending quality time together and having fun—no experience needed. Each participant will receive a 16 x 20 canvas, acrylic paints, and all the supplies necessary to create their own masterpiece. Your finished pieces can stand alone or be hung side-by-side to form a combined work of art. Our instructor will guide you step-by-step through the painting process.

Vanessa Merry

Instructor Vanessa Merry moved to Florence, Italy at the age of eighteen to study the methods of the great masters in painting, drawing, and printmaking at Palazzo Spinelli. From here she continued her education and exploration of the human-figure, still-lifes, and landscapes at Atelier de Chimere in France where she enjoyed Plein-Aire painting in the French countryside. She moved back to the United States where she attended and graduated from the University of Minnesota in Visual Arts and Art History.

Vanessa currently enjoys creating works of art in many different styles, but finds herself happiest when she is in the classroom teaching others all the skills that she has acquired in her studies.
