One Mountain Watched / Another Walked Away / As the Dragon Emerged / To Stand Up Right

This class will introduce students to my ideas, techniques and philosophies about painting and the creative process.
through a series of planned lessons each focused on an aspect of process and idea.
We will begin each day with a lecture demo focused on a particular process. You will then work on individual lessons for the entire day.
I will be critiquing and guiding students through out the day, remaining focused on one core idea per day.
The last day and remaining time will be left for individual work and experimentation between the previous days lessons.
There will be question and answer sessions as well as critiques throughout the days.
