Supply List

Flowers are a valuable and rewarding subject for novice and experienced painters alike, but due to their seemingly overwhelming intricacies and details, can be intimidating to paint. In this three-week workshop with Canadian artist Mel Williamson, learn how to overcome your fear of florals by exploring color harmony and composition and learn how to simplify shapes and colors to emphasize what excites you most about this timeless subject. Engaging demonstrations and exercises, along with optional homework assignments, will help you refine your skills and ignite your creativity. Participants will work both from reference images and from real-life blooms, when possible!

Mel Williamson lives and paints on Salt Spring Island, BC, where she creates work in a variety of genres, including the human figure, landscape and still life. Her work has been described as “impressionistic, fresh and honest” and has a unique expressive quality, through bravura brushwork.

Known as a kind, generous and open teacher, Mel shares her knowledge and practices with others in an encouraging manner. She teaches online and in-person in Vancouver and Italy. She loves oil paint in all of its materiality and possibility, and believes there are no mistakes, only progress.

Mel is represented by three galleries in Canada: on Salt Spring Island and Sidney, BC and in Toronto, ON.
