WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

To uncover our voices we must create an environment of curiosity and inspired limitation that fosters authenticity in our work. In my own journey to my voice, I have discovered so much richness in my inner landscape. Our beliefs, desires, and fears directly affect our ability to express ourselves truly.

Self-awareness coupled with practical experimentation empowers your creative practice.

I will work with each artist where they’re at right now. Whether you need to hone your technique, break through your limiting beliefs, or experiment with new ideas – we will work together to clear your creative path forward. Think of this as a think tank, a brainstorm, a laboratory.

I will offer a scene to work from as our subject. A live model, objects, theme, atmosphere. Each artist will find what interests them in this scene, allowing for the widest range of tastes to participate. I will work in oil as it is where my expertise lies, but my students may use any medium they favor. I will offer my supply list but I do not require students to adhere to it.

I welcome artists of all levels of experience to join this workshop.
