Course Description:

The one thing I'm passionate about all my life is creativity. I will help anyone anytime explore, discover, expand, and develop his or her own creativity. Usually people who cross my path want or need a boost to their own creative efforts. If anyone even asks me about painting, I tell them to start at once because if they had no talent, they would not have inquired. I NEVER inquire about playing the saxophone or taking music lessons!!! Since tropical third world people have been the subject of my paintings for several decades, I am thrilled to be going to Panama and absorbing the incredible colors and textures we will find there. My students are welcome to paint landscapes or figures or both. I will encourage you to let go of your ideas about orderly streets and gardens and indulge in the lushness, wildness and overabundance of tropical vegetation and growth. I will encourage you to use more paint more freely than you have ever dreamed of and to tackle subjects that are probably outside your previous experience. All levels of students are welcome. The only requirement, besides the desire to take a painting class, is a completely off the wall bizarre sense of humor. See you at Finca La Maya.
