This class is now full.
This two-day workshop will meet from 10AM to 4PM on Saturday and from 12 to 4PM on Sunday. Concepts covered will be evaluating intention, manipulating photos for the best composition, process for transferring design to canvas, and finishing a strong painting. While the class will be taught using oil paint, other mediums can profit from this content.
Before the workshop registered participants will receive an email from the instructor with more information and the opportunity to ask any questions about the workshop you may have.
