These workshops are intended for artists of all levels who have some experience in watercolor and would like to further their interest in painting and designing the landscape. Some workshops meet outdoors and some indoors. Others are a combination of both. With indoor classes we paint from out photos and sketches and the outdoor sessions are directly from nature. There are daily painting demonstrations, lectures, individual instruction and group critiques. Participants are responsible for their own art materials.

Paint Silver Lake this summer
Kit Carson Lodge, California
Highway 88 starts its climb from Jackson and winds its way up toward the Carson Pass high country. As you come over a rise near Thunder Peak you are taken by surprise at the panoramic view of Silver Lake laid out before you. On the far side of the lake, nestled in the conifers is Kit Carson Lodge. This is the Sierra you remember from your childhood, a place to reflect and renew. There is so much to paint here in such close proximity. In September of “07, we painted at Sandy Cove, Caples Lake, and Woods Lake all just a few miles away. There is gourmet dining in the evening and maybe even time for an after dinner stroll. Bring your paints and prepare for an attitude adjustment.

Paint Old California Where it Still Exists
Explore the coast from San Simeon to Morro Bay. This is some of the most preserved of the
countryside as California once was. Paint from the winery at Harmony, stroll the beach at
San Simeon and stand on the rocks at Cambria and paint the sea.
