This workshop will give you a set of exercises and tools to loosen up, along with coaching on the fine art of patience.  Painting takes patience and practice, yielding you big rewards along the way!  In this workshop you will gain strategies for simplifying your landscapes, thereby putting the emphasis on color and the energy of place.  We will employ editing techniques, gesture and unique color interactions with a series of demos and exercises that get you exploring how far you want to go in loosening up your landscapes.

Color mixing and paint application are always a focus in my workshops regardless of subject.

Open to all mediums.  Demos will be in acrylic.
