In-Class Critique | Artwork ©2023 Leslie Hannon

DESCRIPTION

This workshop provides you with an opportunity to work on either a current, ongoing project that you have already been engaged in, or begin a new project. You will receive guidance, inspiration and advice as you work. Second, you will be assisted in developing your personal visual voice as an artist. Ample time is provided to work on your own projects in addition to receiving individual feedback and participating in group discussions and critiques. You will learn from both the instruction and the other artists, resulting from the camaraderie of working alongside other artists.

NEW: Workshop includes a Group Discussion led by Master Artist Coach C. Jordan Blaquera, co-founder of the Create Anyway Collective, on how to be more confident and courageous in creating with and developing your Personal Voice. Discover unlikely and possibly unknown obstacles that may be standing in the way of you authentically expressing yourself in your creative work.

Student furnishes their own supplies, surfaces and projects to work on which can include works in progress. This workshop does not include a live model. Additionally, student must provide their own reference material to work from (photos, sketches, objects, etc.). (No oil paint; however, oil paint sticks are okay.)

Guidelines: You may work on 6 pieces maximum with a maximum size of 48” x 32” for each piece.

PRAISE FOR DAVID LIMRITE FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS

I learned so much in three short days, especially what doesn’t work in my paintings and for me personally. David is truly kind, most encouraging, caring and supportive. I benefitted from the critiques because they were so positive, with much good advice on making paintings stronger.

It could have been five days! Was just finding my groove and it was time to pack up.

[I enjoyed] working in a positive, encouraging environment with fun people in a great place. And of course, I enjoy your very positive critique style.

Absolutely challenging and making me work far out of my normal little “box”. David is an ultimate teacher, super encouraging and supportive. Also, incredibly knowledgeable, but easily understood. 

Fast pace. David kept it interesting. Great demonstrations.

Good positive vibe through the workshop. Had a great time!
