Working from photographs of wildlife and birds, students will focus on improving their drawing, color, value and edges in painting. Wade will demonstrate and explain every aspect of his method, and painting style. There will be lots of group instruction during the demonstrations, and individual instruction as requested. The workshop will create a relaxed atmosphere with emphasis on the fun of painting. Students are encouraged to bring their own photos or other reference material (wildlife, birds, and domestic fowl), and the instructor will have many photos to choose from as well. Students will paint indoors; from photographs.
