About the Workshop: The workshop will be held at the Calhoon MEBA Engineering School, located on the beautiful Miles River just outside quaint St. Michaels, MD. The workshop will be taught in a studio setting as well as plein air on the picturesque grounds of MEBA’s campus. This workshop is designed for students of all skill levels, and individualized attention will be provided to each student. Armand will give daily demos (in oil) during the middle of each day, allowing students the time to paint during the best light. Students will paint at their own easels. The class will work with a limited palette of warm and cool primary colors, plus white. Armand will focus on all aspects of successful painting: concept, drawing, form, composition, color and harmony. This will be an intense, but fun workshop taught by a recognized master of the medium. Students must have their own painting equipment and supplies. Class size is limited. For more information about the workshop, please call Sharon Price, 410-745-9018 or email at pricesworld@yahoo.com.
