Painting Still Life en Plein-Air: One Day Workshop at the Ranch!

This workshop is for beginning and intermediate painters who are interested in painting still life subjects directly from life and in combining that with outdoor landscape painting. Bruce will work with participants individually, in a hands-on, step-by-step fashion, guiding them from start to finish and focusing on aspects of the process including composition, drawing, color, value and paint handling. The workshop goal is that you’ll leave with the confidence and knowledge to continue to develop as a painter of both still life and plein air landscape. Bruce will demonstrate the process to get us started in the morning, followed by participants setting up and painting their own or shared still life subjects. call/email Bruce Katz at 415-902-0713 bruce@brucekatzstudio.com Visit Bruce's website here!
