16th Annual, Six Day

Oil Painting Bootcamp Workshop, St. Paul, MN

Spring 2011, Dates and details coming soon.

Confronting the vargaries of working directly from nature is one thing; making good subjective choices which lead to artistry is something else. During this week you will be introduced to methods and ways of looking which will help you with both. All levels welcome with the understanding that you bring a healthy mix of humility and patience.
— Joe Paquet
