Creating art is a very effective way to stimulate the brain, and anyone can do it. We are all born with an inherent desire to express ourselves, and art covers an extensive range of activities to help benefit our brain and mental health to make us happier and healthier people.
This is a step-by-step instructional painting class that will teach technique and blending with acrylic paints on canvas. Learn how to express yourself with a professional artist who will guide you in completing a work of art by the end of the session.
Janell Drumheller is an expert painter who has been teaching high school art and science in Mason City since 2008. She also owns an art business that was born right here in North Iowa through NIACC’s Entrepreneurial studies class at the Pappajohn Center. When not teaching, Janell keeps herself busy by painting murals for business and residential clients all over Iowa as well as holding regular canvas painting classes at several locations all over the state. She volunteers for the city of Mason City and also at MacNider Museum when time allows.
