Have you ever wanted to loosen up your paintings but still retain the initial impression and feel that your subject evokes? You may be looking for that life breathing stroke of the brush that is descriptive yet freeing?

She’ll be demonstrating the importance of color, edges, and mark making to shape the atmosphere and mood of your work.
