Ready to put brush to canvas? Join Pamela duLong Williams for an inspiring workshop on the art of still life painting.

Oil paint lends itself to the joy of creativity.

It is forgiving.  It is organic. It is malleable.  It is transformative. It is inspiring.

For that reason, it is an excellent introduction medium to painting.

It is said Winslow Homer would not let his students work in water color until they mastered oil.

The goal of this workshop is to strengthen your understanding of the tools and techniques of painting with oil paints. One day of painting with Pamela will help you improve.

Whether you are an experienced artist or a ‘first time’ oil painter this one day workshop will reinforce and inform your knowledge of picture making and help you to develop your ideas and inspirations.

****The demonstration given the night before the workshop is the introduction to the workshop. If one is attending the workshop it is strongly recommended that you attend the demo. It  will give you an idea of where to begin your own painting and help you to make your compositional and color choices. Most importantly it will prepare you – as a starting point – for the next day.

Spaces are limited for this popular workshop, so pre-registration is highly recommended. Call Barn Gallery: 207.646.8400.
