Oil & Acrylic Workshop
Students will stretch their imagination while strengthening skills through the process of painting. Various approaches to painting will be encouraged: experimentation of techniques and ideas, trial and error. Students will be challenged to see and interpret in new ways. Personal consultations in each class will cultivate students' vision. 
Students will gain the confidence to explore the use of color, mark making, surface quality and composition, emphasizing their own pictorial language.
Explore where you are and where you wish to go. Please bring a reference material (photos) for inspiration.  The instructor has provided a suggested supply list.
