What if your paintings could feel deeper, richer, and full of light?

Layering is one of the most powerful ways to create luminosity, atmosphere, and movement in your work – but it can be hard to know where to begin.

In this LIVE ONLINE WORKSHOP with Yvonne Reddick (), you’ll learn how to build a painting in layers, starting with a strong tonal foundation and gradually adding transparent glazes, opaque colour, texture, and expressive mark making.

Over 3 sessions, you’ll paint along as Yvonne guides you through creating a semi-abstract atmospheric seascape – while teaching techniques you can apply to your own style and subject matter.

You’ll learn how to:

• Use an imprimatura and grisaille to establish composition and value
• Build depth with transparent glazes and opaque colour
• Use both palette knife and brushwork with more confidence
• Add texture to create movement and atmosphere
• Bring more luminosity and visual interest into your paintings

If you’ve ever wanted your paintings to feel less flat and more alive with depth, glow, and atmosphere… this workshop is for you.

What if having a clear painting process helped you feel less stuck, more focused, and more confident in your work?

In this mentorship group with Gavin Glakas (), you’ll build a stronger foundation in the fundamentals while learning how to think through your paintings with clarity and purpose.

This group is designed to be the kind of space Gavin always wished he had as a student: friendly, straightforward, no-nonsense, and full of room to ask questions, kick around ideas, and experiment.

You’ll focus on:
🎨 Building a reliable painting process so you have a plan for any problem
🎨 Strengthening your compositions to make your paintings more dynamic
🎨 Using color intentionally instead of just “chasing” it
🎨 Creating stronger depth and space in your work

This group is for emerging artists who want to understand the fundamentals more deeply, develop better studio habits, and approach painting with more confidence, direction, and creativity.
