Learn the art of the miniature!
In this two-day workshop we will learn to paint mini masterpieces while developing skills to strengthen paintings of all sizes. Painting small we will learn to simplify compositions, block in color, and grasp essentials quickly and efficiently, opening ourselves up to painting larger works with a simple plan and clear vision. You may find these jewel-like miniatures capture your heart and become your favorite new way to paint!
Intimidated by painting small? Have no fear; we will work in a variety of sizes from 6x8” down to 1x1” according to each person’s comfort level. Painters of all levels and subjects are welcome, as we will cover portraits, animals, landscape, and still life.
With mini paintings you can:
- participate in a rich history of miniature art
- paint tiny jewel-like artworks that fit anywhere
- transport and sell work more readily than with larger paintings
- make finished artwork with less time and fewer resources
- learn skills that strengthen your art practice
- make mini sketches to grasp ideas and work out problems before beginning larger paintings
