This fun, eye-opening workshop will ignite new ways of thinking into your practice. Think about it: the painting process is like a huge club sandwich. Therefore, our job as artists is to dismantle the sandwich. Each part of the sandwich is either a response or an analytical layer. By keeping these layers separate you can find joy and freedom in your painting.

This workshop is a combination of demonstrations, exercises, individual attention, and group discussion. This “en plein air” and studio workshop will expand the way you look at and interpret the landscape. The outdoor painting component will be supported by a series of freeing exercises that delve into painting the secret beauty of the place. In the studio we will embrace risk-taking and technical skill as ways to allow creativity to grow. Rather than just painting the scene, open the door to responding to the painting. Poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.
