Announcing: John Poon Landscape Painting Workshop




 
Fundamentals of Landscape Painting with John Poon'


April 1 – 5, 2019
10 am – 5 pm



This workshop will focus on the fundamentals of Value, Color, and Design, which are so necessary in the creation of successful paintings.   
We will paint from reference material as if we were in the field, learning the use of warm and cool tones for unity, and adjusting values to show more air and life into our shadows. 

This approach will enable participants to use photos with a much broader range of possibilities and outcomes. 

All skill levels welcome

Students will learn a reliable,     step-by-step system for completing paintings start to finish which can be applied to both on-location and studio works.  Instruction will include lecture and slide presentation, instructor demonstration, class and individual critique, and one on one time with each student.


Finally - a workshop that deciphers the mysteries of age-old concepts and breaks them down into simple, straightforward, easy to understand principles!
Where: Patris Studio and Art Gallery
3460 2nd Avenue
Sacramento, CA 95817

Time: 10 am – 5 pm

Tuition: $650

Registration: Contact Patris at artist_patris@yahoo.com to register and send in a $200 deposit to hold your space. Checks made payable to Patris and sent to studio address.
