The class will focus on my limited color palette and alla prima acrylic technique. Students will learn to draw and paint intuitively with a quick lesson in accurate rendering and color theory.
We will all paint our own Santa painting from different photos encouraging variety and individual creativity. We will not be copying my previous Santa painting so you will each leave with unique paintings.
Santa Marcus (THE Santa above) will be present prior to the workshop to take photos to use for your reference images. I can also provide images if you can’t arrive early. We’d love to get a group photo with Santa before he leaves!
