A fantastic workshop last weekend with Michael Siegel.

Michael Siegel began the workshop with a wonderful demo of a still life.  He explained what makes a good still life with even deeper concepts than just making a nice painting. 

He is an amazing teacher and throughout the 3-hour demo, he would illustrate different concepts and ideas on his painting, explaining and clarifying many higher level ideas that only only gets to hear from a master artist.

Here is the painting I worked on during the workshop.  I hope I can remember everything I learned!

Michael Siegel Workshop Sept 25-27 --space still available

Michael will open up his demo to the general public on Friday morning from 10 am - 1 pm.  Demo price is $60.  This will be another amazing workshop and if you can find a way to clear your schedule, it's worth every minute to study under this master artist. 
Michael Siegel is by far one of the best teachers I ever had the privilege of studying with.  Come join us this coming weekend!
