Studio Mentoring Workshop, Fall Semester

FALL MENTORING WORKSHOP with David Slonim

*** THERE ARE A FEW SPOTS LEFT.   IS ONE OF THEM YOURS? ***

Six Sessions, meeting every two weeks.  This allows time in between to practice the things we discuss.
Many students have found that this format helps them absorb and make use of more information.

The goal:  To inspire you with personalized coaching.  I want to help you create the best work you’ve ever done.

How? By applying time-tested principles of visual communication to your own work, your working process, and your mindset.
Time-tested what?? The masters of every time period and style used rock-solid principles.  Their work is structured.   The good news is we can learn the same principles.

You can paint abstract, impressionistic, or realist.  The principles apply to every type of visual communication.  Want to work in pastel or watercolor?  Fine!   This is not a technique course, so it applies to all mediums.

Ready to take your work to the next level?

Come ready to laugh, learn, and work hard in a fun, relaxed environment where risk- taking is encouraged and celebrated.   You can paint better than you think you can.
I promise to work my tail off to prove it to you.

I hope you can join us!

NOTE:   This workshop is designed as a follow up to “Oil Painting:  Principles of Visual Communication”.  If you have taken any workshop with me previously, you are welcome to sign up for this one.
If you have not, you are still welcome, but you need to understand up front that I won’t be able to go back and cover all the material as thoroughly as I do in the “Principles” class.   You WILL be exposed to review of the principles taught in the “Principles” workshop,  but with fewer extended power point lectures and excercises.  The ‘Principles” course  is intensive delivery of information, the “Mentoring” workshop is intensive studio application of those principles.

My goal is to present the material in the most beneficial way.  I’m not trying to leave anybody out, but if you sign up for this, you just need to know what to expect.
