3 Day Workshop with Acclaimed Artist Dawn Whitelaw
Take a step beyond the basics of painting by exploring color harmony and palette management, edge work and setting the value key. Students will paint from their own original reference. Subject matter is student's choice and can be any combination of people, places or things.
The workshop will include a combination of lecture, demo and easel to easel instruction. The class size will not exceed 14 students in order to insure ample personal attention. Four weeks of online help is included to help finish up the projects started in class.
