1/2 Day Workshops
Half Day Workshops for all levels of experience including the absolute beginner from my home studio in Hahndorf and Duthy Street Art in Parkside. Designed to BLITZ your painting. You may not completely finish your masterpiece in that day but you will get very close and have the confidence to complete it at your own pace.

I love these images created by entrepreneurial artist Tracy Porter of Porters Art Guild. In this workshop we will construct - choreograph - compose your painting and let Tracy’s influence initiate your painting.
Oil Painters and Acrylic Painters with any level of experience are welcome.
