This method of painting requires no drawing skills, no prior painting experience, and allows even the complete beginner to finish a fantastic original oil painting on their very first session! Participants are amazed as they see improvement with each session and every painting. Step-by-step, we paint beautiful EAGLES, EGRETS, BLUE AND GOLD MC CAWS, AND MORE, as well as several styles of leaves, foliage, and vines—EVERYTHING a bird wildlife artist needs to know how to paint luscious, eye-catching bird portraits!
