| About TWO Paint
Studio Workshops
Two Paint Studio is happy to offer year round workshops. Accomodations
are available upon request and spaces are limited.
For those of you who would like to break away from the studio and paint
en plein air, meaning done on location out of doors, as opposed to in
the studio, these workshops are designed to do just that.
To see more of Ken DeWaard's work please visit his web site at the

For Ken there is nothing more rewarding and challenging than painting
under an open sky, surrounded by the scents and sounds of nature, along
with it's ever changing color harmonies to excite one's creativity.

Workshops for 2011.
We will start early and go late with a siesta in the mid day or you can choose to paint through it if
you so desire. Most workshops start at 9 and go until 4, which is a six hour day we will go 9 hours
a day by beginning each day at 6:00 am - 10:30 am then resume at 3:30 pm - 8:00 pm ( sunset ).
This is not for the faint of heart. We will start off with small canvas' ( color notes ) moving to larger ones as the day goes on and then back again to the smaller ones as sunset closes in.
We will be facing the challenges of capturing the ever fleeting light as well as seeing beyond the
obvious and looking for the designs in nature. As always we will be working alla prima and look to
complete these in one session. We will also be working to simplify our shapes, really push
to explore our use of temperatures and color along with controlling our values as well as our edges.
Composition and design underly all of these along with our drawing which will be our foundation.
This class will be a very invigorating and fast moving with a slightly slower tempo during the mid day hours.
All in all we will look to make our paintings vibrant, fresh, and full of light and color.
