In this 2-day outdoor workshop, Alexandra will take you painting at a beautiful private waterfront property in Pottery Cove, with views of Navy Island, and Saint Andrews Harbour. The workshop will begin each day with an in-depth demonstration by Alexandra, focusing on use of a “view finder” to establish a composition, wet-in-wet acrylic painting techniques, and linear perspective. Afterward, students will receive one-on-one coaching and notes in review. Colour mixing, the  use of a bamboo skewer as a tool to measure angles and proportions in a composition, and the pros and cons of using a photo reference for landscape painting will also be covered in this intensive and fun workshop.

Although this is a beginners’ workshop for those who have not yet painted landscape on site, it is still recommended that participants have experienced some previous painting instruction.

Participants are welcome to paint in any medium they choose.
