Time is running out to sign up for my
plein air workshop in Wimberley, Texas.
The five day workshop is $550 or if you
can't stay for all five days you can pay
a day rate of $100 per day for as many
days as you want.
I have published the daily schedule below to
help those doing the daily thing pick their
days based on what is being taught on any
particular day. As with many workshops,
the first two days are the basics and then we
get into the real meat of the workshop
half way through the second day.
I am excited to be teaching and to be teaching
in the heart of the Texas Hill Country is a real
bonus. Contact Belinda Aber-Haddock at
512-722-6032 or sign up online at
www.wimberleyartistworkshops.com.

Rusty, I would definitely take your workshop if I were closer. I love your work and know I could learn so much from you. Someday.....
Thanks so much Steve. I really don't think I could teach you much. You're one of the best painters I know, but I do appreciate the compliment.
