Workshops
Steve Puttrich is a unique combination of award winning artist in oil and watercolor, and an inspiring and successful teacher. He understands how people learn and what is needed to inspire confidence and build skills in artistry.
In Steve’s workshops, you'll learn at your own pace in building skills and mastery. Classes are structured to include demonstrations of a composition in a step-by-step format, time to paint and generous feedback to build on your own artistic process. It is Steve’s intent that by the end of the sessions you will have built a confidence in your ability as an artist and have a sense of direction for growing your understanding and skills for painting.
Class sizes are limited to 10 -12 students, so personal instruction is never far away and group interaction is fun.
If you’ve always wanted to paint in watercolor or oil, now is the time.
