Abstract painting WorkSHOP
NATURE abstracted

Currently at
http://ohanloncenter.org/programs/sight-

An on-going workshop I teach around the bay area. Check in for dates and times. Currently I'm doing one Saturday a month at the O'Hanlon Center in Mill Valley. A beautiful setting to enjoy deep in Cascade Canyon.

Come work on inspiration from nature using watercolor, graphite, tape and sumi ink. Analyze growth and structure of plants and other forms of nature using live flowers, leaves, stones, feathers etc. as models for drawing and painting, then explore how to turn this in to abstract images.
