2024 WORKSHOPS

Painting with Purpose with Amanda Lovett OPA, AWA
January 18, 19, 20 | 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
​​​Are you interested in “loosening up” with the intent of adding more life to your paintings? This workshop is designed to help you do just that, all the while maintaining a clean and professional appearance to your work. Through demos and one-on-one instruction, I will explain techniques to explore what’s possible and provide exercises to help you see more than just what’s in front of you. Learn alternate methods of applying paint while maintaining the visual structure of an object. Join me for three days of “losing it” in order to find what matters most in your paintings. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced painter, the goal is to develop the skill to reach deeper than ever before into your own sense of artistry.
