Next month, my class will be painting many small studies of the beautiful flower fields and castle topped hills of the Languedoc Region in the South of France. When we return, I've decided to teach a workshop about how to take those small studies and paint them large.
Of course, this course is not just for those who are going to France, but for anybody who wants to learn how to take a smaller painting and paint it big. If you don't have a small study that you want to use, go out and paint one. You have two months!
Send me an e-mail or post with your questions, but contact Patris for registration and more information.
Oil Painting Workshop

Bring your small
studies and learn how to take them
large. Use one or two of your favorite
plein air pieces (depending on your level of skill), and learn how to develop a
plan for your larger piece. You may choose to paint the exact same scene if it
was very successful the first time, or
re-design a stronger statement. From this design we will paint a new painting
using our studies as a reference guide along with our newly developed design
plan.
($50
deposit is required at registration - materials list will be provided after
registration - class size is limited.)
