In this one-day workshop, you'll learn the secrets to drawing portraits & faces. This workshop will walk you through the process of drawing faces from start to finish working from a photo. We will begin by learning how to map out proportions and face-type to capture the likeness of your subject; we will study the planes of the face as we explore form and shading; finally, we will gain an introduction to facial anatomy to gain some insight into the structure of the human face and features. The afternoon will be devoted to you working on your own drawing with adding the layers and all the finishing touches. If time allows and you finish early, you may start on a second drawing.

For beginner to intermediate artists. Both rocks and reflections are about understanding how, and from where, light strikes a surface. In this half-day workshop, we will learn to see rocks as shapes made up of light and dark planes, and reflections at the beach as mirrored sun and sky depending on time of day. Through explanation and demonstrations of technique, short exercises, and guided time at the easel, students will leave the workshop with a small study and their own painting incorporating rocks and reflections, plus a hand-out of workshop information to support continuing on their own.​
