• Almost weekly zooms from mid/late-May to mid-August, 2026 (9 zooms) 
  • Fridays, 10 am – 1 pm Chicago time
  • Each week we’ll meet, and you’ll get a “painting challenge” that you can complete during our zoom, or work on all week, depending on your time and how much you want to get out of the workshop. 
  • The challenges will focus on developing your skills further in fundamental areas, including drawing, tonal value, color use, and edges. 
  • For any artists interested, there will be an (optional) project of “Building a Body of Work.” 
  • Space will be limited so that everyone can get individual attention.

During the zooms, students can share work and get critiques. There will be demos and time to paint. And there will be (optional) homework. This will be a great workshop for anyone who wants to improve their painting skills in the fundamental areas of painting! You’ll be challenged and have fun, too. Sign up for updates to find out when registration opens.

Reviews

“I so enjoyed your class, Jessie!  Always nice to think of art in different ways or to be reminded of things we had forgotten.”

I really enjoyed your class, and the way you present things. 
Thanks for a thoughtful and engaging class, and a deep dive into color schemes!”
