Monday Mini Workshop in Oils with Milly Sheffer

Opportunity for Artists
Monday Morning Mini-Workshops
Milly Sheffer will hold a series of Monday morning mini-workshops on painting in oils. The workshops will take place at Brick City Center for the Arts, Ocala, Florida and are open to artists of all levels. There’s no need to sign up for the whole series. Simply come when you wish. The class will be from 9:00 to noon but arrive a little early to set up. Pay at the door, $25/session.
Artists need to bring their own supplies and a portable easel. Milly will start the workshop with a demonstration followed by the artist’s painting and provided with individual instruction. She will address subjects including: painting with a palette knife, loosening up with large brushes, creating color vibrations, working ala prima to complete a canvas in a couple hours, using color theory to create harmony, doing quick sketches with a brush, following and/or breaking the “rules” of composition, putting together all you know to create your own unique style, and whatever else the attendees would like to learn.

Milly Sheffer is an experienced teacher of drawing and painting, has exhibited widely and won numerous awards both regionally and nationally for her watercolors and oil paintings. She prefers to work quickly and loosely, allowing the process to show in the finished piece.
