Painting Workshop - Virtual

In its 12th session

“Sam helped me to see color differently. The activities in his classes helped me to not just see color, but to experience it. Sam sets a nice positive tone in the class. He modeled having fun, experimenting, and discovering in a unique way.” Spring 2023 Student

“I was resistant to learning to paint on Zoom but it is actually wonderful. I can keep my studio setup and Sam has all 2 cameras dialed in with incredible art history slide shows and easy to see palette and canvas demonstrations.”

How is the class taught:
2 cameras to teach the class on Zoom.
