Oil color workshop, no experience required.
All supplies included

This atmospheric pastel colored oil painting is styled after the famous artist J. M. William Turner, whose artwork depicted the English coastline, often based on his imagination where the horizon line gets lost in the mist. And we will attempt to do that also, blurring the water and mist or fog so we achieve a “lost horizon”. It is also a good lesson in mixing light values or pastel colors.

About the artist

I have been teaching oil painting for over 30 years and acrylic for 15 years. I am best known for my patience and gentle teaching methods. My knowledge of how to “fix” any mistake is much appreciated. The most known thing about my teaching is the Host-based Paint-In-Parties I developed and named Van-Go on Wheels. I travelled in my van for 5 years conducting acrylic paint classes in homes, businesses and organizations and in my Yellow Brush Art Studio, Yale.

My painting career took on a very public view when commissioned to paint 13 5’ x 10’ historical murals for the Yale DDA that still hang on a store in downtown Yale.

My art career is now in a new growth as a calling is leading me, a greater purpose in painting and teaching that is to express the grand nature of God. The exquisite scenes of extraordinary light inspire me, penetrating my soul and I need to express that beauty! My hope is to draw people into seeing beyond the ordinary things of nature, to be uplifted and transformed, and to look deeper into the beauty of God’s nature to find rest and peace in this world that can be so harsh and cruel.
