    Painting from Life: Alla Prime was my first live painting class in over 4 years, so I was a little intimidated to start and wasn't sure if I would receive the level of guidance I probably needed from being a little rusty. Despite their being 6 other members in the class, the teacher sat with me throughout the beginning and walked me through color theory, mixing instructions, and even layering techniques. It was super personable and fun, the other class members were also happy to provide some advice and everyone was really nice! Would definitely take it again.
