Using the Zoom platform, on Monday and Tuesday, July 6 and 7 from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m., oil and acrylic painters will learn to loosen up their techniques and create light-filled paintings while also learning how to paint with a limited palette. Students will be guided on establishing composition, tinting the canvas, building the underpainting, and adding layers of color to a finished painting. Brian will demonstrate his process step-by-step, giving participants plenty of time to paint after the demo. This class is for high beginner and intermediate painters. The cost is $65 per person.

Guest artist, Brian Murphy has committed himself to capturing on canvas the scenic environment throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia. The same majestic landscapes and seascapes that inspired early California Plein Air painters such as: Edgar Payne, Hanson Puthuff and William Wendt provide audience to the artist’s unrestrained style. Further afield, extensive travels to exotic locales including: China, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Hawaii, and Alaska have resulted in impressive collections of oil paintings, while fostering the artist’s creativity and global awareness.

Registration is required for all workshops. To register go to www.rehobothartleague.org or contact the Art League’s Education Programs Director at paula@rehobothartleague.org or 302-227-8408 ext. 112.
