***VACCINATION PROOF REQUIRED!

My classes are perfect for beginners, intermediates and professional artists alike. Creating a very supportive environment, I take you through a painting step-by-step. I have a unique method of teaching color theory and how to build a painting in a fun and effective way. I also do painting demonstrations throughout the process for the group and each individual, explaining visually how to solve problems or create different effects. Class size is small to give lots of individual attention.

Fall 5 Week Workshops

Early fall workshops are now enrolling. The workshops run for 5 weeks, each session is 2.5 hours. You can chose either the morning or the evening class, both are held on Tuesdays.  ALL LEVELS WELCOME!

Late Fall Workshops
Palette Knife Techniques!

Explore the beauty and movement of nature in this five-week acrylic painting workshop, where we will create a landscape featuring a wildflower meadow in the Berkshires.

Discover the bold, expressive possibilities of painting with a palette knife in this exciting hands-on acrylic painting class. Instead of relying primarily on brushes, students will use palette knives to apply, layer, scrape, and sculpt paint across the canvas, creating rich texture, energetic movement, and vibrant color effects.

Through guided demonstrations and step-by-step instruction, you’ll learn a variety of palette knife techniques including blending, layering thick paint, creating texture, and using broken color to add depth and light to your work. We’ll explore how color relationships and expressive mark-making can bring landscapes to life with a fresh, painterly quality.

This class encourages experimentation and freedom while helping students build confidence in composition, color mixing, and surface texture. Suitable for beginners as well as experienced painters, the workshop offers a fun and approachable way to create dynamic, textured paintings full of personality and energy.
