Each summer for many years I have been doing workshops with Common Ground on the Hill: Traditions Weeks. Last year, these in person workshops had a last minute turn around to go online. The pandemic is still active, 2021 will again bring you CGOTH Online classes in the traditions of music and visual art. Starting June 28 going through July 16th, 2021. 

I will be teaching two classes this summer, the 1st and 3rd weeks. They will both use nature as the theme, wildlife, birds, trees, leaves or the image of your choice. We will explore using abstract backgrounds with realistic or impressionistic images in the foreground. Reviewing basics drawing techniques and than pushing them using mixed mediums. 

These classes are developed to teach new students and to challenge advanced artists. Check out the website for information on cost, registration and materials needed for the classes. If you have questions about the class contact me directly.
