In two (2) afternoon sessions, Larry Charles — a nationally-recognized, exhibiting artist and expert instructor— will take you step-by-step through the process to hand-paint porcelain plates. You will create one plate each session. These unique one-of-a-kind, personalized gift plates are perfect for the holidays, birthdays, or just because!
Larry will provide tips on how to select a theme with separate images tailored to give to someone special (or to keep for yourself). Larry believes that if you can draw a sketch or paint a picture, you will have all the skills necessary for this two day workshop.
