The Spring "Just Paint!" Workshop


This spring's Just Paint! workshop will be held in the brand new Spicewood Center for the Arts, in the beautiful hill country area near Austin. John and Patty Curtis will host the workshop and will answer all your questions about how to be a part of it!

We are planning to have a variety of workshops there in the future: portrait, still life, and plein air, as well as short-shops for color charting and other special skill-boosters. This time, I've invited students to bring their own source material; whatever they want to paint. It can be actual still life objects or photographs of anything that inspires them.
I have found that there are a lot of people who have great art inside them but are afraid or unsure of how to let it out. That ember of inspiration can either die or be fanned into a flame. I'm a flame-fanner, baby! If this is you, if you want to paint your vision but are stuck... bring me an ember of inspiration and we will start a bonfire of beauty that will let your joy be seen by the people it was meant for. Quiet all the other voices and listen to the still, small voice that whispers greatness for you: believe it! Do it! Just Paint!


 
If you missed this one, contact Kim (kim@kimcarlton.com) or Patty (jpcurtis@austin.rr.com) to be added to the wait list for September's workshop.
