Krampus: Good Brushes Gone Bad - Anytime Access Class

$99.99

Have you ever wondered what happens to all those paintbrushes after they have been used and abused?  They start hanging out with shady underworld types of the art world like Willy “Crunchy Palette”  Magee,  Bonnie Broken Pencils, and  Muddy Watercolors.   At that point it’s too late…. there’s no rehabilitating those Bad Brushes after those hooligans get to them.  Well, in the the winter…things get even shadier…those brushes turn into the sinister winter demon…KRAMPUS! In this Art class we’re going to take those old battered brushes and give them a bit of personality.  The more dried out and crunchy, the better.   Using found objects, clay and paint you will transform these common brushes into the most notorious collection of paint pushers this side of the North Pole.  Better Watch out…Krampus is coming!.
