Please don't give up and pitch your paint brushes. I am confident that I can help you make some real progress, gain confidence and have a great time doing it.  "Michael as Tevia" (Live model) The number one compliment I get on my paintings is about my brushstrokes and have finally figured out a way to really teach it. I have decided to enlist my hero, Nicolai Fechin! Whether or not you are a big fan, there is so much to be learned by studying his style. Nicolai Fechin was an artist's artist. It was very important to him to paint th e spirit of the subject, whether it...

Nothing enhances spontaneity and improvisation like careful planning!  Contradictory as that may sound, having a clear idea of where you want a painting to go, and how you will get there is the key to you having more fun, and learning to paint better.  This workshop will cover essential information and skills necessary for your success in plein air and studio painting.  It is not intended to teach a painting “method”, but to provide the information you need to “play” and grow as a painter in a directed and meaningful manner. •  You will learn the working principle and huge benefits of using NOTAN sketches to prepare your painting plan.  You will learn how NOTAN can pave the way to a more confident understanding key design and composition principles. •  After presenting the basic subject matter, which includes the concept and logic of Notan and its relationship to composition, and color, I will demonstrate and answer questions. •...

  Hydrangeas and Blue Plumbago by Nancy Medina SOLD 20X16 Oil on Archival Panel Purchase Information Flower Painting Workshops My Web Site Follow Me on Facebook Sign Up for My Art Newsletter! I am sad to say farewell today to the Space Coast, the warm sun, the full moon over the ocean, and a classroom filled with talented, funny, delightful students who are so lucky to live in this charmed place. It's no wonder my students were so good natured, I'd be smiling, too, if I lived in a place where the beaches were warm and the palm trees grew like weeds everywhere you look.  As my workshop hostess gave me a tour of her town, I had the funniest sensation I had been there before, though I knew I had never been there. Have you ever had that happen? I told her I had dreamed when I was a little girl of living in a little pink house on the beach. She said there was a line of little pink houses just up the road, right on the beach, not far from w...

The student will gain a better understanding of composition, temperature changes, color harmony, atmosphere, and the importance of lost and found edges. Unlike most other subjects, the still life offers the artist complete control over every aspect of the final painting.
