You can learn to rosemal.
Just start taking a few classes with the Illinois Norsk Rosemalers and you’ll learn the necessary strokes needed to create your own pieces of art. Norwegian rosemaling is created with “s” and “c” strokes and a bit of linework. Choosing traditional background colors and mixing a truly Norsk color palette is an important part of the lesson. Find classes where you can learn this fascinating art form by clicking on the Summer/Fall list below.
