June’s Class Spotlight
The Oil and Acrylic Painting Class usually on Thursdays has been cancelled for the first two sessions due to low attendance of returning students (traveling). We are offering a truncated month of classes for June starting on the 17th of June and ending on the 24th. Returning and new students will determine this starting when the minimum of 4 students is met. Cost is $70.00 for the two June sessions. Any students who had signed up for June already is transferring their payments to the truncated schedule. The remaining amount will be on your Art Store account for later use. All details can be found at Upcoming Events | The Art Store (prescottartstore.com)
The Drawing class on Saturdays is in need of one more student for the month. Attendance is low so individual attention from the instructor will be very easy to attain if you register. All details can be found at Upcoming Events | The Art Store (prescottartstore.com)
Sculpture Class sessions will be the first 3 Saturday afternoons of June. The below Watercolor event will be conflicting on the 26th. All details can be found at Upcoming Events | The Art Store (prescottartstore.com)

These brushes spotlight their long handled interlocked-bristle brushes with flagged tips (split ends) to control and hold more color, the Refine brush line combines quality, value, and variety in shapes and sizes to meet the creative needs of all oil and acrylic painters.
- Angular Bright/Shaders: Used for tight shading and curved strokes.
- Brights: Length and width of brush is generally squared. Similar to flats, but shorter hairs make a stiffer brush.
- Egberts: The Classic Egbert is a filbert with extra-long hair. This is a more traditional brush used by the Old Masters, typically for oil painting.
- Fans: Brush fibers are spread out making it useful for subtle blending and for textural effects.
- Filberts: Create a softer edge than a flat or bright.
- Flats: Longer hairs than a bright, this brush has more flex and a large color carrying capability.
- Rounds: Smaller sizes are typically used for detail work and larger sizes tend to be used for washes and filling in color.
