Mini Landscape Painting Workshop with Andressa Poti June 20th and July 19th
Join us for a relaxed, creative evening painting moody marsh landscapes inspired by the South Carolina Lowcountry.
In this guided three-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to create your own small-scale acrylic painting on deckled-edge cotton paper. We’ll all be working from the same marsh scene as a guide, allowing you to follow along step-by-step while still adding your own personal touches. Artist Andressa Poti will walk you through the process using high-quality acrylic paints and materials, focusing on atmosphere, color, and depth.
We’ll break the process down into simple, approachable stages, starting with a light sketch, then building layers of color, and finishing with soft blending and detail work to bring your scene to life.
This class is beginner-friendly and designed to feel relaxed and supportive, whether you’ve never painted before or have some experience.
BYOB, all materials are provided, and each guest will leave with a finished painting ready to frame.

Workshop Details
1) Age limitations
Unless otherwise indicated, workshops at Candlefish are designed for adults ages 18 and older. Because our candle workshops are BYOB, involve high temperatures, and are intended for adults, we aim to create an adult friendly atmosphere.
2) Punctuality
We get it, things happen and you run late from time to time. Although we won’t give you a tardy slip for being late to class, please be aware that classes start promptly at the designated time.
If you are going to be late*, please call the shop ahead of time and let us know, otherwise we may begin the class without you and we don’t want to do that!
*If you or any members of your group are going to be over 15 minutes late, we ask that you reschedule for a later date to allow us a chance to book your open seats. You can easily reschedule your class via your confirmation email prior to the class start time.
