Michael will begin his workshop in Sacramento with a painting demo from 10 am - 1 pm on February 6.  Workshop participants as well as a limited number of observers will have a first hand look at his thought process and approach to painting.

Michael is an amazing teacher and masterful artist. Artists studying with him have a genuine opportunity to learn and grow in their artistic development 

Michael studied privately with modern master, David Leffel, and passes along the knowledge and experience he gained under Leffel's tutelage so that each student can reach new levels in their artwork.

   

A wonderful Encaustic and Ceracolor Workshop with Paco Benitez

Using the ancient palette of the Greeks, which we now fondly refer to as the Zorn palette, participants experienced using a limited palette of ochre, white, red, and black in both encaustics and the newly produced Ceracolors. 

Students worked from reference materials, images of Fayum portraits and a live model. during the workshop.  Paco Benitez is the premier master of using the limited palette for contemporary representational painting in encaustics and everyone gained so much from his expertise with this art form.

Thank you Paco for another wonderful workshop!  We look forward to having you come back to California for another workshop in the near future!
