This is a 1 or 2 day oil painting workshop with OPA and AIS Signature artist James Swanson. Starting a painting is exciting, but finishing can be a grueling time. In this workshop, James will be showing what to look for and things to think about when putting on the final touches to your painting- like knowing when to stop, or when you should push on, when to change brushes, and focusing the focus. We will be doing a small painting each day, with half the day going over the finishing touches. We will also go through photographing your artwork and getting them ready for shows, social media, and using Procreate.
Fee: $175 for the two day workshop $100 for a 1 day Workshop 9:30am - 4pm
