Painting Workshop Northern Colorado

Paint in the Artist's Studio
2-Day Workshop:
These workshops will have a different theme each month but as always you can show up and paint whatever you want
Friday/Saturday June 26 & 27 2009
2-day workshop plus one additional day working 1 on 1 with the artist following the workshop.
In these work shops artists can bring in a grouping of no more than 4 completed paintings so we can discuss and undercover problems that we may not see when we examine paintings in progress in a hurried class setting.

"Painting Large Still Lifes"


2 large/complex still lifes will be set up and we will have 2 full days to complete one or get 2 good starts. I will also provide 8x10's photos of each still life for each artist. I recommend canvas sizes 16x20 to 24x30 inches. Often times after 2-3 hours you are just getting into the groove and it is time to clean-up....this will give you more focused time.

9:00 am to 4:30 pm each day
Class size limited to 6 artists.
Workshop fee: $165
