BATH — Centre St. Arts Gallery, LLC, is offering oil painting taught by Bath artist and muralist Roz Martin beginning Tuesday, April 9, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. for eight Tuesdays, at 11 Centre St.

The fee for the class is $200, payable in advance. A materials list will be issued upon payment of course fee.

This course is designed to instruct beginner and intermediate artists in the basic principles of oil painting. The artist will learn to handle this medium with confidence. At the end of the course, each student will complete at least one painting.

Lesson topics will include: materials, supplies, and equipment; perspective; composition; value and color; and brush skills.

Martin grew up in New York City and has spent much of her life in North Carolina, where she became strongly interested in the nation’s lighthouses, evident in her seascapes. Since moving to Maine, Martin’s work has appeared in Banners Over Bath, outdoor art exhibits and Bath’s Third Friday Artwalks.

Also since arriving in Bath, Martin has developed a more modern design vision through the creation of murals for interior design. She now primarily paints murals. She has also combined her painting talent with teaching as she instructs painting courses at Regional School Unit 1 Adult Education Center.
