Palette Knife Painting Workshop (Ages 16+)

This information-packed workshop is designed to give a good foundation for bold, direct palette knife painting. The workshop accommodates beginners to advanced painters. All participants can expect to produce at least one painting.

Class begins with a demonstration focusing on the most direct and effective methods for painting strong, vibrant oils using painting knives and a limited palette. Participants are encouraged to ask questions during the demonstration. Afterwards, participants will paint from their own photography or may choose to paint from one of the large photos provided for them by the instructor.  Students can expect both group and individual  suggestions and critique based  on their individual needs.
