            A wet-on-wet oil painting course is being offered at Shawnee State University from 6 to 9 p.m. on each Tuesday from May 4 through May 25 in the Vern Riffe Center for the Arts, Room 303.
            The wet-on-wet painting technique is when the painter paints layers over already applied wet paint. It is a fast process because the painter must paint all of the layers before any of the paint dries.
            The technique for wet-on-wet usually includes wet-n-wet, color wash, splatter, scratching, sponging, and bleeding. This course is for both experienced and inexperienced painters. Participants must purchase their own supplies. Supplies needed for this course can be purchased at Toy Town or Hobby Lobby. The tuition fee for the class is $69.
            Toy Town will be offering a 10% discount on the supplies for any SSU student and 40% discount coupons are available at Hobby Lobby’s Web site at www.hobbylobby.com.
            For more information or to register for this course, contact University Outreach Services at (740) 351-3274.
