FIND YOUR VOICE IN WATERCOLORS
In all of my workshops, I aim to cover subject matter that supports you on your painting journey—whether that’s mastering dramatic skies, capturing water in its many forms, exploring landscapes, or tackling urban environments complete with people, cars, boats, and more.
At the start of each workshop, I invite every student to share what they hope to gain from our time together. I use this input to shape a flexible methodology that allows me to touch on as many of your individual goals as possible.
I teach the way I would want to be taught—openly and thoughtfully. I don’t believe in pulling rabbits out of hats. My goal is to make my process transparent, helping you understand the reasoning behind each decision I make as I work.
