Join us for a continuation of Alan Shuptrine's last workshop, "The Art of the Dogwood". Alan, our owner, is also an Internationally Renowned watercolor artist (and a National Watercolor Society Signature Member by being selected 3 times over for their Annual Exhibition). He focuses on true-to-life realistic style paintings with the lost art of watercolors. This workshop is going to be an in-depth study of how to learn to paint watercolor, in vivid color and realism. It will focus on the actual size and shape of the Dogwood flower - true to form and scale. You will learn about highlights, and shadow, color mixing and painting in detail. If you want to challenge yourself, and step out of the box a little, please join us on Saturday, June 16th from 10-4pm for an intense workshop with Alan Shuptrine. Prices are $150 per student, and spaces are available by reservation only! Call Stephanie at 423-266-4453 today as spaces are limited, and this workshop is PRICELESS!

Also, our historical restored Brownstone, located in the art and design district is ready for you to host your own gallery event or party. Contact 423.266.4453 or email thegallery@goldleafdesigns.com for booking!
