Dear Milwaukee Sketch,
Renowned artist/instructor Stephen Quiller is teaching "Color and Water Media Possibilities" at Richeson School of Art & Gallery in Kimberly, WI, Nov. 4-8. There are some (very rare) last-minute openings!
Steve is hands-down the best instructor it's ever been my privilege to work with and knows more about color and color theory than just about anybody on the planet. AND he is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. It is very unusual for there to be last-minute spots in his workshops, so this is an opportunity too good to pass up.
Full information on the workshop is below. Call us at 920-738-0744 to sign up or do so online by clicking HERE. We'll hope to see you at Richesons on November 4!
.
Happy Painting!
Terry
Color and Water Media Possibilities 
Stephen Quiller November 4-8, 2013 / $575
About the Workshop
This workshop will emphasize my approach to color as well as exciting water media possibilities. I will begin using transparent watercolor but throughout the week explore combinations of watercolor, acrylic and casein. Each medium will be used to its advantage in terms of visual qualities and handling characteristics. Each day I will demonstrate and work with participants individually. Please join me at the Jack Richeson studio and gallery in Wisconsin. It is a great teaching and work space and the Richeson museum and gallery housing over 400 works of art is adjacent to this space. It is an inspirational place for a workshop!
