Subordination to the Big Picture
July 10 - August 14, 2013 (Wednesdays, 6:30-9:30pm) — Big, strong, interesting shapes make for good paintings. Think of anyone from Rembrandt to Rothko. The trouble is nature and our eyes (brain) conspire against that beauty by confronting us with all kinds of interesting details, values, contrasts, colors and little shapes. Those elements can be helpful to a painting but they must be subordinated to the larger shapes and values. This is one of the most fundamental and powerful principles one can learn. This class will explore the beauty of finding the large shapes and using those shapes as an organizing principle to create a successful painting. We will work from both still life and the live model.

Landscape: Plein Air to Studio
October 21-25, 2013 — Students will be painting en plein air in and around beautiful Sedona with the last 1 1/2 days devoted to working larger or more developed work out of the plein air studies and photo reference.

Alla Prima Plein Air
November 1-3, 2013 — This is a high-energy workshop concentrating on the fundamentals of plein air painting, where students will be working with the basics: drawing, values, edge control, composition and paint handling. By working on the 'basics', the artists will start building confident brushwork and will make quicker decisions, forcing them to rely more on their instincts, all of which are important tools that are needed with "Direct Painting" or "Alla Prima" painting, whether painting in the studio or painting Plein Air. We will start with students producing Quick Studies that are painted in 30 minute sessions. Students will learn the importance of color studies and the excitement of Direct Painting. Students will gradually work up to larger paintings and longer sessions. Visit website

Pocket Sketching
November 2-4, 2013 (10 - 5 on first day, then 9 - 4 with a one hour lunch) — Does carrying everything keep you from painting/sketching? Whether you're a raw beginner or a professional, Pocket Sketching is for you. The format is only 4 x 6 inches and can go anywhere. In a café, on the subway, on a horse, who's to notice but you? Absolutely portable, the watercolor supplies fit in a fanny pack or purse. In 25 minutes or less, you can capture what captivated your attention. Why do your trip photographs never look like what you remember? The camera can't have your one-of- a-kind reaction to what you saw: only you can express what you felt. When you're accomplished, this becomes a meditation with your subject, (for the painter, a source from which to paint in the studio). Visit website

You will learn to let go of painting habits and gain the knowledge of layering textures, colors and feelings while executing shapes utilizing a structure of positive and negative space. All of the paints used will be waterbased. Visit website
