Four Day Palette Knife Painting (in the studio and plein air)

Four days and I promise you will love painting with a palette knife!

Our first day starts off with a few exercises pertaining to color mixing, painting values and some basic palette knife exercises. Then we’ll start a unique paint-along demo in which Leslie demonstrates the basic approach to completing a painting with a palette knife.  This demo helps students understand the basics and guides them to success using a simple step by step approach.  And ... you will love your completed painting ...

On the second day we will all paint together while participating in a paint-along painting demo.

On Day Three we will head outside and paint plein air. You can plan on painting two small paintings - one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The day will be spent painting your own palette knife paintings as Leslie provides one on one personalized instruction at your easel.

On Day Four we will head back to the classroom and start out with another painting (or paint plein air if weather permits). That afternoon we will all participate in a group painting exercise that will cement all that you have learned during the week.

As a special treat, we will dine together for a homecooked meal by yours truly!

Plus as a group we will focus on “motivation” - we will inspire, elevate and help each other discover the joy of painting. Plus we will talk about marketing ... suggestions as to how you can sell more art on-line via facebook, your blog, website, newsletters, etc.

Cost is $450.00.
