What to Expect:

Cloud Painting Workshop - 2024 Cannon Beach!
Immerse yourself in the vibrant world of oil painting in our 3-hour Cloud
Painting workshop. Much like painting, cloud-watching can be soothing and
create a calm state of being. This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to learn
or hone already existing oil painting skills. Join us for an enriching artistic
experience where you’ll capture the essence of floating clouds with oil paint and
brush on a wood panel or canvas. Working from a variety of Cannon Beach
‘cloud’ photographs, you’ll be guided with step-by-step instruction on how to
achieve form and depth utilizing shading and highlight (tint) techniques.
Developing an understanding of what different brush sizes, shapes, and
strokes have to offer will go hand-in-hand with learning about the different
ways to apply paint, using mediums to achieve specific effects (such as drying
time), color mixing, and finishing.
