Get Inspired!



I'm excited to be teaching a two day
workshop at Rockport Art Association 
next week September 27, 28 
9:30 - 3:30
If you need to shake things up and get inspired;
this is the workshop for you! 


(student work from previous class)


The Way In 
16 x 11 oil 
(from a photo) 

Learn how to create more “expressive” paintings by breaking the subject 
down into big, simple, shapes and letting go of the details. 
Using shape, color, and line, with an emphasis on 
strong composition and correct values, 
we will explore fun ways to express an emotion or feeling. 
Through a series of quick exercises, demos, and critiques, 
we will discover how to create lively, expressive paintings that are in fact,
 highly organized and carefully planned. 
Students will work from simple still life set-ups and photographs, 
using a limited palette and large brushes. 
Be prepared to step out of your comfort zone! 
Oils are encouraged, however acrylics will work.


Hope to see you there!
