Landscape Painting Class Photos
The summer landscape workshops
are limited to 14 students. As such, students form a close knit
group and receive
plenty of personal, one-on-one attention from the instructor. We
paint at several locations: Skagit City Park, White Swan
Bed and Breakfast and Larkspur Farm, and at the Skagit City Schoolhouse, an historical landmark
that serves as our home base. |

Demonstrations routinely happen each day, either
in the morning or the afternoon. Skagit City Park. |

The demonstrations are highly practical. Mitchell
explains his creative process at each stage. |
 |
One-on-one coaching is an integral part of the workshop.
Students are visited by the instructor two or more times
each session. Instructor Mitchell with Amanda Cooke, Skagit 2005. |

In addition to one-on-one coaching during the regular
painting sessions, there are two group critiques during the 5-day
workshop. |

The wide open vistas of Skagit Valley farmland
offers students many interesting subjects. Here, a plowed field on

The Skagit City School House, an historical landmark,
serves as our home base for the week. The class eats lunch there each
day and holds its two critiques there. |
