Saturday March 14 from 10 am-4pm at ASiF Studios

The River is calling to come and paint her! Learn to paint water and rocks…hang up inhibitions and take the plunge!
This class is geared to beginners (or anyone) who wants to learn how to paint water.

The instructor will share some steps to show how she began to learn to paint the Yuba.
Working on a 10×20, students will paint along with the instructor, step-by-step, on a painting that has key river elements such as rocks, river water with reflections and depth and foliage.
You are responsible for purchasing your 10 × 20 canvas, but I supply the paints and lend brushes if you don’t have your own.
Dive In and enjoy!

You know how everyone ends up in the kitchen at parties?
The heart of the hearth, the sustenance, the home.
I paint spaces where I spend my time. My favorite? Kitchens.
Soup and stew nourish our bellies. Art nourishes our souls.
See you in the Kitchen!

Painted Paper! Collage! Color! Shape! Design! Story-Telling! You can’t help but have fun in this workshop, playing with scissors, glue and paint!

It’s called High-Level Play because it means approaching creation with freedom, curiosity and experimentation. It’s about being present and letting the process guide you, essentially blending serious artistic development with the joy of discovery!

You bring only the sturdy substrate (ie: whatever you choose to do this work on such as canvas or masonite panels, cradled panels, even plywood). For space & time considerations, keep your substrate sizes to 16×16, 16×20 or 20×20…If time permits, you can do more than one! All other materials are supplied.
