Learn the secrets to painting beautiful flowers in oil. This 2-day workshop will include presentations to help you understand floral shapes, create form, mix colors, choose backgrounds and vases and more, as well as a demo/hands on “paint along” each day. You will paint a small floral each day – one in a garden setting and one in a still life (photos will be provided). Pat will share her method for achieving clean, fresh color, avoiding mud, keeping things loose and simplifying florals so you can capture their essence and beauty without getting lost in the details.
Pat is a popular and experienced instructor who has been teaching painting for over 25 years and has led 19 international workshops.
