Bring flowers to life in sculptural form.
In this expressive, hands-on workshop, you’ll explore the bold and tactile world of impasto painting, creating richly textured floral compositions on natural wood panels. Using thick layers of paint and intuitive brushwork (and palette knife techniques), you’ll learn how to build dimension, movement, and emotional depth through texture and color.
Working on wood as your surface adds an organic, grounding quality to the process—allowing the natural grain to interact with your floral forms and enhance the sense of depth and warmth in your final piece.
