Workshop Concept: This half day workshop will introduce the students to painting in the "Impressionism" technique. The students will be introduced to the Impressionist artists, Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh as we paint in the style they were known for... Impressionism. The students will learn much more than a technique... they will learn the concepts of simultaneous contrast, broken color, optical mixing, texture, and contour strokes in this workshop. Students will work along side of Bernie as they paint their own masterpiece in this style. Bernie's step-by-step technique and individual attention to his students will have you amazed at how easy it is to paint like the Impressionists of old.


In this workshop we will take a painting from this...
