Reasons to Sign up for a Class:
1.
Discover Your Medium:
A class is an immersion in to its subject. Your teacher can explain
and demonstrate how and why the materials react the way they do.
You’ll learn how to push the limits and how to coax it into
professional results.
2.
Save Yourself Time and Money:
When you stumble along on your own, you tend to waste time and materials.
You experience more mistakes and often end with results that just
don’t meet your expectations.
3.
Try Before You Buy:
You won’t need to invest a lot to get started. You can use
tools and supplies provided by the teacher until you are sure you
like your subject well enough to invest in your own. Don’t
have your own studio? You get to use someone else's until you are
sure you are ready to branch out on your own.
4.
Learn How to Stay Safe:
A teacher can show you the proper way to use tools and warn you
about potential health hazards related to your subject. Every medium
has its dangers. Learn what they are and work safely.
5.
Find out What Tools are the Right Tools:
Trying to learn about a subject on your own is tough. It’s
amazing how much simpler a project is when you have the right tools
and know how to use them! You can learn about something you never
knew existed that may suddenly solve a problem you’ve been
struggling with.
6.
Learn the Tricks of the Trade:
An experienced teacher can share their tips and tricks that will
help you to learn how to work economically. They can share where
you can cut corners, and when you shouldn’t. You may also find
the best sources where to acquire your tools and materials. Also,
when skills are demonstrated by someone professional, it’s
so much easier to learn the correct way to do it. You’ll often
experience Light Bulb Moments - “Ohhhh! So that’s how
to do that”!
7.
Get Excited!
Inspiration is often picked up from other artists. A talented teacher
will inspire their class to creativity. By asking questions and
observing your teacher work, you’ll get encouraged to create
great pieces yourself!
8.
Meet New People:
You meet people in your class that have the same interests as you.
You might just meet your new Best Bud. By sharing an exciting class,
you’ll also learn from others as well as enjoy yourself in
a creative, relaxed atmosphere.
9.
Have Some Fun!
Classes are an opportunity to develop a lifelong leisure pursuit.
Just think of the fun you’ll have getting to play with your
subject AND learn something new about it!
10.
Be Green:
Spend your money on fun, learning, and art rather than buying more
unnecessary clutter for your house. For that matter, why clutter
someone elses’ house? Give gift certificates for art classes
rather than any more gifts that no one wants!
