Join us for a two-day workshop exploring the use of the palette knife in your artwork.  explore the looseness and freedom the knife catheterizations knife can add a looseness and freedom to your paintings. The palette knife is an incredibly flexible tool and learning to use it effectively will help you gain the confidence to experiment with it in so many creative ways. From increasing texture and distinct edges and lines to infusing clean color into the mix.  You can use it a small amount to add tactile interest or do your entire painting with the knife…or something in between.

Day one will include an introduction to the knife and the limited palette we’ll use. Together we’ll do color charts and paint a small still life or landscape from a photo, using both a brush and the palette knife. Day two we will start a landscape from a photo and expand upon your palette painting techniques.

I’ll be working in oils, but feel free to bring acrylics if that’s what you are familiar with.  Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.  Hope to paint with you soon!!!
