EMPOWERING ARTISTS
DAL offers workshops taught by nationally recognized artists in a wide range of mediums including watercolor, oil, pastel, acrylic and collage to name a few.
We have expert instruction in subjects such as landscape painting, the theory of design, painting the human figure, color theory, etc. DAL maintains a large lending library for members that is filled with DVDs about all types of painting styles and techniques. Members regularly get together in small groups to draw and paint.
