Announcing Borrego Springs Workshop
The Western Sky, 12″ x 16″, Oil on panel, Private collection, © Eric Merrell
Title: Desert Painting Workshop with Eric Merrell
Location: Borrego Springs (Anza-Borrego Desert State Park), California
Dates: March 9 – 11, 2012
Time: 9 am – 4 pm (hour break for lunch)
Cost: $450
Description: In this workshop we will emphasize color and design – not copying nature, but using it to create our own voice. The California desert provides a perfect place to learn to simplify, one of the biggest challenges in painting. Californian artist Eric Merrell has spent a good deal of time painting and exploring the California deserts, resulting in two solo exhibitions on opposite coasts of the United States: at The Forbes Gallery (NYC) in 2010 and American Legacy Fine Arts (Pasadena, CA) in 2011.

I would love to attend this but I can’t. I’ll bet it’s gorgeous and I would so enjoy watching and learning!
Thanks Marian. I hope to get some good photos to post. The weather should be great in the desert at that time of year.
