painting women and light

 
 

My passion for painting is inspired by women – their beauty, strength, sensuality and artistry – from the nude to the sensuous dance of flamenco. Teaching other painters what I’ve learned has added to that passion and expanded my own art.

Tips for Painting at Home


Colour Mixing using the limited palette is the latest in my new series of tutorials to help you keep your art practice going at home.


You’ll also find another presentation called Lies My Eyes Tell Me. It’s a presentation on the 5 basic elements of my class and how they help us stay on track in the painting process.


The presentation from my Painting with Pencil class will walk you through the process so you can give it a try at home as well.
