WORKSHOPS
PLEIN-
MAY 13-
Come along for a great French Vacation Workshop.
I'll be joining a really fine watercolor instructor, and great friend, Kathy Dunham (Check out Kathy's website here), along with a small group of around ten people, for a ten day workshop experience.

I will also be happy to share my (Un)limited palette (the use of only the primaries. (See below)

and have longed to return ever since. My visit to the caves was a life-
Both photographers and painters are welcome, as are all levels from beginner to advanced. Those using digital will, of course, have the advantage of seeing and discussing their work at each day’s end.
Students should be familiar with their cameras, as we will be focused on the seeing side of photography, rather than on the technical. Be sure to bring along your manual, just in case it’s needed, and your laptop, if you have one, with your favorite image editing program.

I hope to see you in France! Feel free to call or email me if you have any questions.
