WORKSHOPS

3rd ANNUAL

CHARLESTON WORKSHOP

November 5- 8, 2008

You're invited to come  paint historic Charleston and the Low Country! The colors of the marsh, cooler temperatures, and the autumn light casting on historic buildings are truly inspiring

This 3 day workshop starts with a meet & greet dinner the first night at my house featuring John's now famous Eggplant Parmesan. Then we will paint daily, learning more about capturing the light and shadows, fine tuning your skills  about perspective and values -  making  you  more comfortable outside painting.

You will also be able to take advantage of the  Charleston Fine Art Dealers Association events that weekend, featuring the Art Walk Friday night,  national artists painting in the park on Saturday (a highlight for previous classes), and a live auction Saturday night.

Class limit 12 (2 spots remaining)

VENICE

October 10-17, 2009

 

The focus for the week will be the plein air workshop.  This fascinating city filled with visual and sensual stimulation will be our home for painting every day. Everywhere you look there will be opportunities for plein air subjects from the architecture to the lively squares, the reflections on the canals and the faces at the cafes. There will be plenty of time for painting, discussions and critiques with a few optional excursions planned to give participants an opportunity to explore the art, food and culture of this truly magnificent city.
 
During the week they will organize optional visits to museums and current art exhibits, as well as have a guided tour of some of the famous Titian's, Tintorettos and Tiepolos that are at home in this city. Venice is incomparable. Whether you have been there a dozen times or never, it is sure to fill you with inspiration. And there is no better way to absorb this unlikely setting than by examining it closely with an artist's eye.
Intermediate/advanced, limited to 12 students.
 
PRICE: $2100 p/p ($400 single supplement)

Meals: Breakfast will be served in the dining room beside a Venetian courtyard. For our 5 dinners together we will sample diverse neighborhood trattorie and restaurants. In addition, Michael and Linda will host our group for two home-cooked meals. During the week we will experience a good cross-section of typical Venetian cuisine. Two nights of the week you will be on your own to follow your nose to restaurants or concerts or the opera or whatever else might pique your curiosity during your stay.
