Announcing

New June workshops: small, semi-private one-day sessions in my home studio with a view. Enjoy a lunch break, plenty of time to develop your work, camaraderie and lots of individual attention. You are welcome to draw, paint, or both. Click here to read about the class that started the idea. 












Drawing & Painting Workshop
Topic: Interior with Landscape View
We will look particularly at Diebenkorn, Matisse and Bonnard as we draw and paint the view through the old fashioned windows of my Spanish-style building to the red tile roofs and Lake Union beyond. Drawers will explore a series of variations in the first half, building to a more finished study in either pencil or charcoal after lunch (you may also bring colored pencils or other media). The focus will be on simplifying creatively, understanding the perspective of what you're seeing, connecting indoors to outdoors, and creating a strong compositional structure. Painters will sketch and transfer their drawings to Bristol board in the first half, then switch to painting after lunch. Your additional focus will be on making a painterly, layered painting. Lots of individual attention and demos. We will start on time and keep our lunch to an hour to maximize our work time.
