In-Person Figure &
Portrait Workshops

Discover the beauty of figure and portrait painting through my in-person workshops, designed to provide a hands-on learning experience and foster artistic expression.

 

This is an exciting opportunity for your organization, business, or school to enhance your artistic and educational offerings by hosting a figure or portrait painting session led by a skilled and experienced artist.

This workshop curated for all skill levels to have a unique and enriching experience.

How It Works:

  • Introduction to Figure & Portrait Painting: An overview of the history and techniques of figure or portrait painting, including demonstrations of various styles and approaches.

  • Hands-On Workshop: Participants will engage in practical exercises under my guidance, exploring technique, and color palettes.

  • Individualized Feedback: Participants will receive personalized feedback and guidance, allowing them to refine their skills and techniques.

  • Q&A Session: An interactive session where participants can ask questions, share experiences, and gain insights into the world of professional artistry.

  • Overview: I host 3 hour, half day, full day or weekend workshops for private events, schools, galleries, and other organizations, fostering engagement and inspiring participants to explore their artistic potential. I have a budget prepared including a supply list, artist and model fees.

Live event painting

Capturing Special Moments with Art 

Elevate your next event by hiring me to create art in realtime. Live Event Painting allows you to capture your special moments as they unfold at your wedding or special event. I will create a unique piece of art right before your eyes, providing not only a captivating visual and interactive experience but also a memento to take home.

How It Works:

Live painting provides an opportunity to document an occasion in your life with art. I can also create live sketches of the couples/guests to take home as a gift. 

Engagement:

Guests can watch the painting come to life over the course of the event and interact with the artist.
