with Johanna Harmon

October 18-22, 2010      5 Day Workshop

9:30 am - 4:30 pm

Fee: $450M  $475NM      plus model fee 

The focus on this oil painting workshop is to develop and clarify your visual  intention while nurturing the overall painted subject. Beginning with the core elements of painting (line, shape, tone/value, color, texture and edges) we will then explore the infinite visual possibilities that can originate with just a flash of inspiration. Harmon will provide demonstrations, individualized instruction, critiques, and group discussions intended to renew and expand your visual vocabulary. Good drawing skills and a strong grasp of painting fundamentals are recommended. Students will paint the portrait, the clothed and semi-nude figure.

Johanna Harmon studied fine art painting at Scottsdale Artists' School, The Fechin Art Institute, and the Art Student's League in Denver. See faculty link at left for more about Johanna's career, and visit her website at www.johannaharmon.com

Carol Marine was born in Sheridan, Montana, and raised in the very small town of Harper, Texas in a dome house designed and built by her parents. Her mother is a weaver and a potter, and her father builds boats. Her parents always assured their children they could do anything in their lives they wanted, and that it was better to have a job they enjoyed than to make a lot of money. Carol’s family has been her greatest influence and inspiration.

After graduating from Harper high school, Carol spent four and a half years at the University of Texas in Austin. She graduated in the fall of 2001 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art, and a focus in painting. On October 5th, 2006, Carol began the practice of doing one small painting a day and posting them on her blog.
