"Capturing the Light"

This immersive oil workshop is focused on mastering the portrayal of light in your paintings.

From understanding highlights to mastering shadows, Karen will guide you through practical painting exercises designed to apply these concepts directly. Participants can expect personalized feedback and guidance from Karen, tailored to their individual artistic goals and skill levels. We will be working from photos we have taken ourselves or you can browse a diverse selection of Karen's extensive photo collection. You will have ample opportunities to explore different scenes and scenarios, enriching your learning experience. Any subject matter can be chosen except for portraits.

"Getting the Glow"
April 10, 2024
 

Join us for an illuminating oil workshop with Karen as she dives deep into the art of capturing that elusive "glow" in your paintings. Through exploration of color temperature, Karen will unravel the secrets behind infusing your artwork with warmth, radiance, and atmosphere. In this hands-on workshop, Karen will do demos to help with the learning process and participants will have the freedom to choose their own subjects from personal photos, ensuring that each painting reflects their unique vision and style. No more painting from someone else's perspective – it's time to bring your own experiences and memories to life on the canvas.

"Summer Solstice Plein Air Watercolor Workshop"
June 18-21, 2024
 

Enhance your painting skill and technique, guided by a popular instructor, New York/Key West artist Susan Sugar. Each evening begins with a group critique with the goal of becoming comfortable sharing your process with other painters. After the group critique, students disperse to paint on their own. Sugar circulates from person to person, offering individual counsel, as needed. The workshop culminates with a final critique and potluck at Sugar’s home/studio Turtle House and an exhibition of student work hosted by The Studios of Key West at a later date. With a background in dance and architecture, Susan Sugar interprets life in terms of rhythm, space, and light, recreating what she sees with her brush.
