WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
In this class students will draw the Portrait from observation in graphite on Toned paper. Emphasis will be placed on accuracy of Block-in and Form Modeling. It is in the understanding and practicing of the visual tools of blocking-in, students will develop their comparative measuring and shape-seeing abilities. Focusing on block-ins is a traditional academic training method that allows one to fine tune foundational skills for high accuracy.
Once the block-in is complete we will move to the Form Modeling stage. Students will be introduced to the principles of Light on Form. Discussions and demonstration will be presented on the pitfalls of purely visual observation and are introduced to a more conceptual way of seeing. Each student will get a chance to organize a strategic method of thought and process to develop a clear approach to drawing and value modeling .
Beginner and experienced students are welcome.
October 10th-14th, five day workshop
Time: 10am to 5pm with one hour lunch

I’m a Portrait Painter and genre-painter and sculptor in a naturalistic and realistic style. My inspiration is the character and individuality of my models and subjects. I enjoy working from life. I feel it’s the best way to see the intricacies of the subject's form but also a great way to interact and be inspired by the personality of the life in front of me. Painting is a way of reading the world and getting lost in observing it, but it’s also an interaction, an understanding, and a relationship. Every individual has something that is unique. I'm fascinated to learn each particular person's character, traits, thoughts, and quirks. And no matter how different we are as individuals, there is an underlying element of commonality. We can all relate to art that reveals someone's contained emotions and inner thoughts, that triggers a glimpse into humanity. There is no greater beauty and truth than Nature itself, and I believe that nothing can be made up that is as powerful, grand, or intriguing.

While I began my artistic journey later in life than many contemporary painters, I am living proof that it is never too late to pursue a talent, a dream, or a passion.
I have always been drawn to the outdoors and the natural beauty of the landscape. As a young boy, I have vivid memories of riding at the front of my uncle’s boat before sunrise heading out on the lake to fish. The boat slicing through the water still as glass in a setting of solitude and peacefulness found in the early morning light. The sensory elements of nature are a moving and inspirational experience each and every time I venture out in search of material for future paintings. The stillness and quietness of the landscape often provide the inspiration for many of my works.
I love the patina and history of the south. Accordingly, the majority of my work is of the southern landscape, however I also enjoy still life and figurative work. I am focused and passionate, striving to continually evolve and mature as an artist. I am forever working to enhance the poetic expression of my ideas with each painting.
