Landscape Painting: Problem Solving and Critique Pat Kelly Saturday, 9 a.m.–1 p.m. November 1 (1 day, 4 total hours of instruction) La Jolla Studio $100/$120 This discussion-only workshop will help students improve their landscape painting by learning how to solve problems and critique their own work.

We will look at student landscape paintings two ways: - Virtual: Students submit a digital image of one of their landscape paintings before the workshop. - Real Time: Students also bring the painting to the workshop for critique.

The digital format is especially valuable for demonstrating corrections, visualizing suggestions, and generating discussion. Materials: Please submit a jpeg image of your painting to patmkellystudio@gmail.com. Bring your oil, acrylic or watercolor painting to class.
