Class Title: Monet's Muse: Water Lillies in Acrylics, An Impressionist Approach
Class Date: Sat, Sep 12, 2026 at 10am
Instructor Name(s): Sylvie Peltier
Class Description: Discover how to paint luminous water lilies using expressive brushwork, vibrant colour, and simple impressionist techniques. Working with acrylic paint on paper, you'll learn how to create reflections, lily pads, and beautiful blooms without getting lost in the details. Through guided demonstrations and step-by-step instruction, we'll focus on seeing shapes, values, and colour relationships rather than individual petals. This class is suitable for beginners and intermediate painters alike. By the end of the session, you'll complete a finished water lily painting and gain new confidence in your brushwork and acrylic painting skills.
Instructor Bio: Sylvie Peltier (Esspé) is a contemporary artist whose vibrant abstract florals and landscapes are inspired by the beauty of British Columbia. Drawing on more than a decade of painting experience, she creates a welcoming and encouraging learning environment where students of all levels can explore acrylic painting, develop new skills, and experience the joy of creative expression.
