We will explore the utilization of light and dark values, warm and cool colors, soft and hard edges, areas of detail and rest, and more. All of these create depth and realism, guide the viewer’s eye and enhance the visual impact. I will demonstrate as necessary and work with each individual participant as often as possible. One of my main objectives is that we all work hard, have fun and enjoy the process.Franciscan Life Process CenterArt Workshop Registration and Cancellation PolicyA $150 deposit or payment in full is required for enrollment in any workshop.
