Idyllwild, Ca
A mountain community
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.
