Spend a day with your head in the clouds and your feet on the ground!

Join Maribeth for a fun day creating a beautiful, whimsical cloud painting using a very limited color palette. We will start with a quick discussion of supplies, composition and techniques and then quickly move into creating a couple of small, quick paintings before we start a larger, more dramatic cloud painting. This six hour workshop is for anyone who would like to learn techniques and tips for creating beautiful paintings of the sky and clouds.
