DOUBLE MODEL Art Marathon Weekend! (no instruction)
This is a special opportunity to work from TWO MODELS posing together for an entire weekend! There is no instruction (I’m there drawing/painting and timing the models, too). There will be a variety of pose lengths from one minute gestures to longer extended poses. Both models are fantastic gesture models who are experienced collaborators and dancers, so their poses are destined to be incredibly inspired and inspiring! You paint, draw, sculpt, make collages...your choice. The models will be surrounded by a colorful tableau, and a table of snacks will be available to keep everyone happily fueled to keep up with a dynamic weekend of double model compositions.

10th Annual Painting Retreat on Guemes Island, near Anacortes
JULY 26-29: Workshop held on GUEMES ISLAND, WA
(Thurs/Fri/Sat/Sun 9:30AM – 4:30PM) Class Fee: $375 (does not include lodging or food)
PAINTING THE FIGURE in the LANDSCAPE
For four days you will paint from a model among trees, by the water, and in a garden—what a great way to spend an extended summer weekend! It is also a very special opportunity that’s as fun as it is challenging for all levels of painters.
Each morning you paint in a different location with the model in a new environment, from the Puget Sound to the NW forest. In the afternoons you build a painting “from the ground up” over the course of four days. Practicing the Direct Painting approach, specific compositional and color issues are explored that Barbara presents each morning and afternoon.
>NEW! In celebration (and commemoration of) this Ten Year Anniversary for this workshop, Saturday will be a “free paint day” from the model—with no instruction. The model will be posed in the positions of two canvases already underway giving you time to work out the goals of the painting. Barbara will be available for questions and/or suggestions that day. Regular instruction resumes on Sunday. All Levels Welcomed. Oil or Acrylic Paint can be used.
Please email me regarding lodging options on Guemes Island. Home prepared delicious lunches & dinners provided to the group by Patty Klamser for a separate fee. (photos: Students at Work, Painting the Figure in the Landscape, on Guemes Island 2011)
