Last week I was teaching at
OMEGA, and had a fabulous group of students. Do I say that about every workshop? Maybe. Guess I've just been lucky to get such great people participating in workshops. Here is a little eye-candy from the week. I took mostly group shots, as the lighting was not right for getting head-on shots of individual pieces.
THIS IS ALL STUDENT WORK.

Omega has a beautiful, tranquil, campus in Rhinebeck, NY. It's like a luxurious summer camp for grown-ups, with lots of different housing options, great food, trails through the woods, a lake with boats you can use, gardens, a sanctuary for meditation, yoga classes open to everybody, plus wi-fi and cell service. I love teaching there, and have also been a student.
Next year I will be teaching
Intuitive Painting,
June 4 - 9 at Omega. This is open to all levels.
I will also be teaching
Visual Improvisation at Hudson River Valley Art Workshops,
May 7 - 13. This is appropriate for "advanced beginner through intermediat" painters, meaning that you need to have some experience to get the most out of it.
My word, that floating series...I would love to see that in a 48" x 60" or larger that would be stunning!
ReplyDeleteOn another thought, the idea that objects shouldn't "kiss" is nonsense. I notice you make a lot of your shapes kiss and I like that it creates a lot of tension and suspense. Nicely done.
Who ever said that objects shouldn't kiss? Never heard of it. Anyhow, thanks for your comment. I agree with you that the floating shapes pieces would be stunning scaled up.
DeleteSuch deliciousness! Your classes always produce the goods.
ReplyDeleteOmega is my favorite place for arts retreat. Love the studio space. May come back for the Intuitive Painting. :-)
ReplyDeleteSome really interesting work here - they must have had an excellent teacher!
