Join us as we capture the fall season with all its character in this workshop focused on being loose and purposeful with your painting style. The workshop, designed for beginners and advanced alike, will help take your paintings to the next level by challenging you to create works in a direct and expressive manner in one sitting. Working from references, the student will simplify complex compositions and develop a painterly reproduction in oil or acrylic paint. Under the guidance of Carlos Gallostra, you will gain a greater comprehension of the media, color theory and design. All levels are welcome.
