In this latest workshop I gave a drawing and painting demo prior to letting them have at it themselves.
I like to emphasize the importance of good drawing in any successful painting and give them another way to approach it by holding the pencil a little differently than usual, and using the whole arm when making strokes. Then we shift to a painting demonstation showing a couple of ways to start, proceeding through to an almost finished work. It was a lot of fun, and I believe they all left feeling a little more inspired. Great bunch of people. I was sorry that it was only one day, but that seems to be the more popular way to go. Way more sign ups for one versus four days.
