Painting Backyard Treasures

Saturday Workshop
$50.00

We are invited to paint the backyard of Idyllwild resident Nancy Layton.
Lunch prepared by Laura Slattery, you read it right, lunch is included. 

This workshop will place your painting skills above the trial and error method;   
I will tell you the guidelines on how to select a subject
I will show you how to develop your vision into a painting

Painting En Plain Air is intimidating and overwhelming at first.  The presence of intense color, peripheral view, and shapes within shape will ignite your creative spirit. 
I will calm your painting fears by showing you the process of simplification and techniques.

After you register a supply list and location map will be mailed. 
If you have questions please call or email.

Anza Borrego Springs, Ca
Saturday and Sunday Workshop
$100.00 Workshop Fee

Borrego Springs Flower Alert.  The flowers are blooming in the higher elevation and will be covering the desert floor soon.
Did you know the orange and grapefruit groves in Borrego are vast.  Straw covered fruit stands will stock oranges and grapefruit by the bag, no attendent, put money in cash box.  Good subject to paint.
Saturday, early morning, we will go on a photo shoot with camera and sketchbook in hand.   Mid morning the easels will come out and the painting will begin.  I will demonstrate, and lecture on background, middle ground, foreground, placement and color scheme. 
At days end we will examine our paintings with a question and answer critique.
The workshop goal is to capture the essence of the desert landscape.
