Fall Workshops — paint your heart out!
We will start the class with a quick demo of a simple still life painting where I will talk through my choices in composition, color mixing, and brush work. Then I will work with students to create a painting that is uniquely theirs. This class is great for beginners or those who are looking to loosen up their paintings.
