This immersive three-day workshop explores the fundamental principles of oil painting through the study of lilacs and peonies. The focus will be on creating dynamic compositions—elegant and sophisticated, yet casual and relaxed—while maintaining a strong, bold sense of direction. Participants will engage in thoughtful and memorable discussions on composition, massing, building form, light and shadow, and, depending on individual style, learning when a painting is truly finished and how to avoid overworking.
