The following topics are ways which I have developed to help folks hone their painting skills and atune their visions. Also, we can develop content to address specific needs.
Drawing and Sketching- The Conceptual and the Perception.
Watercolor -Its Liquidness , Its Light, Its Grace
Sculpting with Pastel - The only dry color medium
Composition - Underlying abstract shapes of the landscape..
