Sedona Arts Center — We just added NEW Classes and Workshops!

In this workshop, learn to paint portraits and people from photography, and maintain a fresh, loose and impressionistic feeling throughout your painting.  Paint right along from the comfort of your home studio.  We will discuss editing and learn to simplify our reference using a “Less is More” approach!! Throughout the class session, I will be demonstrating and discussing proportions, color mixing and loose brush techniques. Photo reference will be provided for the class in a download. We’ll end our workshop with a critique!

This class also takes place: January 9–10, 2020

Classes will include a variety of poses with the nude, draped and partially draped model, lots of paint sketching, gestural drawing and finger painting techniques. Be prepared to paint looser, bolder, freer, lighter and more intuitively. Plenty of time for action-filled painting exercises, demos and personalized attention. All water soluble paints are welcomed. Materials list provided. No photography, please. Handouts provided.

Participants assemble their own artistic mediums and then draw, paint, or sketch in the comfort and safety of their homes to Pash’s professional, artistically lit poses. The group begins with short, 30 second to 5-minute poses and continues with 20 minute poses. Cost is $15 per session. Everyone gets a front row seat!
