"Where artists become better artists"

" Immediacy is apparent in
my work because it is the
nature of his subjects and
the most instinctive way to
paint. "The process is like a
performance. It combines
the magic of spontaneity
with candid observation of
people." Form and light are
critical elements in my
compositions of street and
market scenes, fishing
boats and interiors".
    Kim English will teach you how
    to swiftly capture gesture, light,
    and form!  Discover how to
    paint quickly and accurately
    concentrating on the “process”.  
    Working with a model,
    numerous small studies will be
    painted daily.  Techniques for
    achieving a spontaneous
    controlled approach will be
    practiced.  A working palette will
    be developed simplifying the
    comparison of color and value,
    an essential part of picture
    making.  Kim’s Gold Medal
    artwork has been featured in
    Southwest Art Magazine, Artists
    Magazine, and in the book Figure
    Drawing Workshop by Carole
    Katchen. He has also self-
    published a book of his work.

Class Outline

    Numerous small studies will be painted each day followed by a review.
    The class will be working outside, not only with the landscape, but also with a model.
    We will also be working with the model in the studio for at least one full day.
