Kathleen loves working with artists to help them hone their vision and grow in their technical painting and drawing skills. This 3-day workshop will include begin on Day-1 with a studio day where Kathleen will offer a presentation and demonstration. Days 2 and 3 will be outdoors; on Day-2 we will go to Maker’s Mark distillery for a day of painting the historic buildings. Then on Day-3 we will be off to Lexington to paint horses at a world-class stud farm (we can’t disclose the location publicly for that reason.) This will be an exciting and adventurous painting experience.
