WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

LINE, SHAPE, VALUE, COLOR AND EDGES:

Learn to interpret and see the subject in a new and interesting way, one that is based on using the basic elements of visual language. This workshop is for those artists who are interested in not only enhancing their painting skills, but also in understanding how one can approach a painting in a more creative way. Although we will be working from live models, the information in this workshop is applicable to any subject matter.

There will be demonstrations, a slide presentation, and as much individual attention as possible. Instruction will be in oils and the class is primarily for the intermediate to advanced painter.
