Basic Skills on Canvas - Painting Workshop

My goal as an art teacher is to expose the student to a variety of art mediums that allow the artist to decide for themselves what they like to use the most.  Painting on Canvas, Sketching on Paper, or combining techniques in a mixture of styles...  it is all subjective


Acrylic on paper, allows the artist to build layers and vary the opaqueness of their paint and experience the brush and various brush-strokes.


Learning how to choose the right brush for the detail or blocking at hand


Knowing when to use less or more water in application of watercolor, acrylic or pencil


Exploring perspective and details to create a visual balance


Mixing Crayon and Bright Colors to Block and Explore Color and Resist


Starting with Color Wheels and Primary tools, the students are shown finger painting and are encouraged to explore their own artistic strengths.


Seasonal Focal Points, such as Floral Arrangements are created by the students, and then from their they can build and paint their own canvas.  With a variety of focal points, the students each have their own unique painting at the end of the painting session!


Simple Floral / Sunflowers in Vase


Animals / From the Student's Selection of Images


Lots of Smiles as techniques are explored


Outdoor Painting Sessions


Visual Observations of Nature


Completed Canvas / Oil on Canvas


Independent Art Study:  $40 per session (2 hours)

1 student $25.00

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

As an artist, it is a new world of social media, twitter feeds, various image held websites and blogs that has created an audience and relationship between you, the viewer and myself (and others) the artist.


I truly appreciate the art enthusiasts, the students, the other artists and friends who provide feedback, encouragement, ideas, suggestions, countless photographs, and various other elements that are wonderful additions to my day to day creative process.  As many know, art is just a passion, and a passion becomes more than life when it is nurtured, cared for, explored and allowed to grow exponentially.

Therefore...  Thank you!!!

Thank you for visiting my Art Page,.... on Facebook, on Twitter, on Etsy, on Pinterest, on Tumblr....

Thank you for supporting and encouraging me.


Please... when you do visit my site,.... sign the guest book....  share a comment, share a page....  provide feedback, that is so important to help guide me in what direction I can next take my art.

Ask me Questions....  Engage in Conversation....

What art Technique do you want to learn more about?

Where do you want to see me?

When can I do a workshop with you and your kids, or with your ladies group?

How about a Date Night?

Instead of a Mom's night out, how about a Mom's night in?

How about a trip to a local flower garden to sit and paint, or along the coast for a Plein Air demonstration and Workshop?

Bring the kids for a Paint and Play....

Art is a Creative Opportunity.... Art is an Adventure in Color..... Texture....  and so much more.



See you Soon, and again.... Thank you!
