Discover the Best Painting Classes in Houston

Are you a resident of Houston or the surrounding area? Do you want a new hobby that will help you express yourself? It might be a good idea for you to try painting. This method of artistic expression–in which paint, pigment, color, or another medium is applied to a solid surface–dates back to prehistory, when nomadic people created paintings on rocky walls using charcoal. The most commonly used tool to apply paint is a brush, but other tools, such as knives, spatulas, sponges, and airbrushes can be used alone or in combination with brushes. The oldest paintings discovered to date were found in Spain, and they are thought to be over 42,000 years old. Painting is an accessible craft that only requires a few materials to get started, so anyone can learn painting.

Why You Should Learn Painting in Houston

If you are looking for a way to relieve stress from work or school in Houston, learning painting could not only help improve your mental health, but give you something to do with your hands during your free time. You may also like the aspect of painting that can be related to doing things for other people. This can come in many forms, such as creating a special gift in the form of a painting that they can hang in their home. This could be a painting of them, their pet, a landscape, or a special memory that is meaningful to them.

There are people across the globe who enjoy painting, both as a hobby and as a profession. Once you have mastered the basics of painting, you might want to research local clubs, groups, events, or organizations where you can meet other people who like painting. These groups could be in-person, but they could also be online, and pretty soon you may find yourself with some new friends who also enjoy painting.

Learning painting is a marketable skill that you may be able to turn into a side hustle or even a new job altogether. You could easily begin selling your paintings through an online marketplace, or in person at a craft fair close to where you live. You may even be able to start taking commissions, where you create custom paintings based on the requests of your customers.

In-Person Painting Classes in Houston

If you want to learn painting in-person in Houston, CourseHorse can connect you with classes in your area. For example, Chalk Paint 101 - The Basics happens at Multiplicity in Katy, TX. In this class, you will have fun while you learn the basics of painting with Chalk Paint® Decorative Paint. You will experiment with color and leave the workshop with a project that will serve as a reminder of the tips and tricks you learned from your expert instructor. Another Multiplicity offering in Katy is Shabby Chic Home Organizer. In this class, you will paint and decoupage a home organizer, while choosing the paint color and paper you will use.

4-Day Mixed Media Summer Art Camp is put on by Multiplicity, and includes four fun-filled days of creating with resin, poly shrink, beads, mixed metals, canvas, flowers, paint, paper, and more. All materials are included in the cost of the class, but you must remember to bring a snack with you for each session. Birch Paradise - String Pull Painting is a Multiplicity offering that will show you how to string pull on canvas and paint with random objects to create texture and depth. You will achieve your piece of art without using a paint brush.

For those who have taken Chalk Paint 101 at Multiplicity, you may enjoy Chalk Paint 202 - Embellishments. In this class, the focus is on finishing treatments that help develop added interest and create more design elements in your chalk painted pieces. Even if you have no painting experience, you can attend this workshop and learn something while having fun. And Painted Dish Towels is a Multiplicity offering that will teach you how to carve potatoes and other objects into stamps, then use the stamps to print on towels with paint. You will receive two painted dish towels as a part of the single session class fee.

Virtual Painting Classes 

Would you prefer to take a virtual painting class instead of an in-person one? You should know that online painting classes have their pros and cons just like in-person painting classes. Something good about taking a virtual painting class is that you can attend the class from anywhere. Feel free to work on your painting project at home, in your backyard, or even in a public space like a park. You also do not have to commute to a classroom when you take an online painting class, which saves you both money and time. The biggest con about taking an online painting class is that you generally have to supply your own materials and equipment.

If you are interested in online painting classes, CourseHorse has options that will work for you. For example, Beginner’s Intro to Watercolor Painting: Single Session is a class that explores the colorful world of watercolor painting. You will experience learning and fun in this relaxed group atmosphere while you discover your unique form of self-expression. Beginner Watercolor Online is a six-session course focused on botanicals, and you will learn to paint with luminous, sparkling watercolors. Enjoy acquiring new techniques and learning through fun activities that transition into studies and landscapes. Online Painting With Acrylics 301 is a virtual class for all levels in which you will learn the techniques of 20th-century painting masters. These include mixing colors and preparing your canvas for your work.
