In this 4-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to mix vibrant colors and use simple compositional rules to create stunning wooded landscapes. You will also learn how to work with reference photos, to easily translate real-world beauty onto the canvas.

Vera will share some of the techniques she uses to create her own work. After a quick demonstration through the entire process of creating a forest painting full of light and shadow, you will have the opportunity to practice on a smaller canvas, explore the possibilities of acrylic paint, and refine your brushwork. You will then be encouraged to create your own 12×12 masterpiece receiving individualized guidance and feedback from the instructor.

This workshop is suitable for all levels. Beginners are welcome!
