I am going to be teaching in several places this year, including two special 3-day workshops at my home studio and garden near Mount Vernon.

I want to invite you to join me in one or all of these opportunities.

Workshops in My Home Studio and Garden

These workshops dive into the individual beauty of flowers, learning how to develop a painting beyond a single painting session, learning to lay down multiple layers of oil paint, maximizing on what makes working in oils so rich and luminous.

Painting Peonies from Life, May 15-17, 2020

In this three-day workshop, students will learn how to paint peonies from life. Painting peonies asks you the artist to observe with intention while also seeking ways to simplify and abstract the color shapes seen.  All levels welcome.

Painting Dahlias from Life, September , 2020

In this three-day workshop, students will learn how to paint dahlias from life.  Capturing the delicate and fleeting beauty of these luscious flowers. All levels welcome.
