Learn to Paint a Self Portrait

  • July 7, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
  • St Mane Theatre – Upper Level Studio

Get an introduction to portraiture by painting your own self-portrait in this adult-level painting class with artist and educator, Arlinda Henderson!  Intended for painters aged 18 and up, the class will take place from 6-8 pm on July 7th in the Upstairs Studio of the St. Mane Theatre.

This Learn to Paint class will cost $15 at registration. Register online at the “Get Tickets” link above. All supplies are included with the registration fee (contact Leah Steding at leah@lanesboroarts.org if a participant is in need of financial assistance).

This class is all about self-expression! Participants will learn acrylic portrait painting techniques and use them to create their own self-portraits on canvas. Self-portraiture not only invites the painter to consider themselves visually but also communicates something deeper about personality and emotion. 

Arlinda Henderson is a landscape and portrait artist with 20 years of teaching experience. A lifetime resident of Minnesota, she is inspired by the state’s natural beauty. After painting primarily in the Northwoods, she is excited to discover and paint the beauty of bluff country.

If participants have any questions – please contact Leah Steding, Program Associate at Lanesboro Arts, at leah@lanesboroarts.org

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant, thanks to legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund, as well as Grants from the Acentek Foundation and MiEnergy’s project Roundup.>
