Workshop with Lois Griffel


I am taking a workshop this week with Lois Griffel in Sarasota, Florida (through The Southern Atelier). She is a master on painting in the style of the impressionists, and on color theory. Most of this information is very new to me, as I have never before studied color theory (at least not in this fashion). It was a bit confusing at first, but I opened my mind, and got some interesting results! We are painting in the "Mable's Rose Garden" at the Ringling Residence. There are so many roses, it is insane! I can't wait to try some of these techniques in tomorrow's class!

Lois had the class do "block studies" one morning...It was a great lesson. One I plan on passing onto my students, for certain!
