SUMMARY:Debbie Mueller\, 2-Day Still Life Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Light-Filled Still Life Painting- A Simple Path\nJoin award-winning artist Debbie Mueller for a 2-Day workshop in still-life painting. Come join Debbie Mueller for a 2 day still life workshop where she will break down the creation of a painting into simple steps that allow the painter to focus their decision making and efforts on one thing at a time. Debbie will teach you how she creates her contemporary still life paintings. April 14-15\, 2026\, 9 am – 5 pm each day\, in Centerville\, TN. \nCost: $350 \nPainting Caption:  “Tea with the Daughters of Edward Darley Boit\,” 12 x 12\, oil on panel by Debbie Mueller \nDoes your heart sing when you see a light-drenched still life painting?\nDo you hit roadblocks when you paint\, overwhelmed by all the considerations in creating a well-designed and executed painting?  Do you get stuck\, not knowing what to do next?  Are you a painter who is familiar with some basic concepts and skills\, such as understanding values\, mixing color\, and paint application? \nDay 1: After getting a chance to know each other\, Debbie will introduce the first steps of creating a still life painting- Idea\, Design\, Drawing and Value.   Students will then begin work on their own paintings incorporating these concepts with support from Debbie. After lunch\, the elements of Color mixing\, Brushwork and Edges will be presented\, and then students will apply these steps to their own paintings.  Debbie will assist students at their easels. \nDay 2:  Debbie will do a demo of a simple still life painting\, reinforcing the ideas that have been presented and giving students a chance to see this process work in real time. The remainder of the morning will be spent with students working on their own paintings.  During lunch\, we will get inspired with a brief presentation of work from other artists. Following that\, students will continue to work on their own paintings. Students can expect to create two paintings during the workshop. \nThe techniques taught during the workshop will be practiced using still life\, but are completely appropriate and useful for any subject- landscape\, portrait\, interiors\, etc. \nThis is primarily an oil painting workshop.  Acrylics  or Gouache may be used as well\, though certain techniques may not work as well with these mediums. \nDebbie Mueller picked up a paintbrush for the first time in 2016 and has become an award-winning artist with recognition for both her still life and landscape paintings.  She is a juried artist at the Rockport Art Association and is represented by a number of wonderful galleries in New England and Texas.   She has exhibited in numerous national juried exhibitions and was the first-place winner of the Art2Life National Exhibition in 2023. She lives in Durham\, NH and practices medicine in Wolfeboro\, NH. \nYou can learn more about the artist and see her work at www.debbiemuellerart.com \n  \nMaterials: \nPlease download the app Grid# for your phone.  https://apps.apple.com/us/app/grid-add-grid-on-image/id1033011034 \nPainting surface: \nPlease bring 2 panels or canvases. I like creating square still life paintings\, but students may use any shape surface they prefer.  Please keep the surface on the smaller size- 10 x 10” is great- 9 x 12 if you prefer a rectangle. \nI like a variety of surfaces\, but prefer panels to stretched canvas.  I use the DaVinci Dual sided panels (I use the rougher side) available at a very reasonable price from Jerry’s Artarama.    \nI also like Centurion linen panels-the acrylic primed ones are quite reasonable and enjoyable to paint on . \nPalette of your choice- you may use your own from home or bring palette paper \nGamsol Odorless Mineral Spirits (NO turpentine or lavender spike oil permitted) \nBrushes- I use mostly long flat brushes\, but you may use whatever brushes you like.  You should have a couple of larger brushes\, size 8-10 or ¾’-1’ wide\, as well as a few #6 (about ½”) and perhaps a smaller liner brush for accents.  I like the following brands- they have the right combination of flexibility and snap: \nPrinceton Aspen: https://www.jerrysartarama.com/princeton-aspen-series-6500-synthetic-brushes \nPrinceton Summit: https://www.dickblick.com/products/princeton-summit-series-6100-white-soft-synthetic-brushes/ \nGrey Matters Synthetic brushes (make sure you select synthetic\, not natural bristle) https://www.jerrysartarama.com/grey-matters-oil-painting-natural-synthetic-brushes \nMedium: Mediums allow greater flow for the paint.  You may bring any medium you prefer.  I like Liquin\, Galkyd\, and Gamblin’s Solvent Free Gel  \nPaints: \nI use a fairly limited palette\, basically a Split Primary palette using a warm and cool version of each of the primary colors\, with a few “guest” colors for convenience. I like paint to be buttery\, not stiff.  The brands I really like are Michael Harding\, Rembrandt\, and M Graham.  If you have paint already that you like\, there is no need to purchase something new. \nAt minimum\, please bring: \nTransparent red oxide (any brand you choose) This will be used for the underpaintings. \nUltramarine Blue \nA blue that leans toward green (Cobalt Teal\, Cerulean\, Manganese Blue\, Sevres Blue\, Prussian Blue) (This tends to be the color I use least) \nCadmium Lemon Yellow \nCadmium Yellow Medium or Deep (Should look like a school bus) \nCadmium Red Light or Vermillion \nAlizarin Crimson \nTitanium White \nConvenience colors that are sometimes on my palette (You do not need to bring these colors) \nQuinacridone Magenta (No other way to make a brilliant pink color- great for flowers) \nDioxizine Purple (Best way to get a super intense purple- great for flowers too) \nPhthalo Green- Stronger tinting than Viridian\, can be used to subdue reds\, make a great black\, and great for that color you see in the curl of waves. \nYellow Ochre- great for neutralizing purple shadow colors\, a dark\, neutral yellow. \nPaper Towels (I’m a Viva girl!) \n\n

SUMMARY:GUEST INSTRUCTOR WORKSHOP SERIES @ MCCAMPBELL ART STUDIOS
DESCRIPTION:I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.”     ~ Claude Monet \nI’m excited to have award-winning artist Yelena Lamm as a guest instructor at my new studio space for a 3-Day Workshop\, October 18-20\, 2024. She is going to demonstrate and teach how to master Floral Painting. This is a rare opportunity that you won’t want to miss! Class size is limited\, so contact as soon as you can to get on the list and pay your deposit to hold your spot. (See flyer)\nYelena is an amazingly accomplished artist. She has gained a tremendous following and has been included in many important exhibits over the year and won awards. Her loose\, brilliant approach to painting\, gives movement and life to whatever her subject may be–from florals to animals to figures. She will be painting from a flower still life – teaching composition\, design\, color mixing and other painting techniques. \nYelena’s Full Bio and CV:  YL_bio-CV_2024 \n \nArtist Bio: \nYelena Lamm was born in Saint Petersburg\, Russia\, and received formal art training from the N. K. Roerich Fine Arts School. Since 1995\, she has lived in Pittsburgh\, PA. \nYelena paints primarily in oil. She loves to reflect on her subjects’ characters and personalities in her lively and colorful portraits of pets and animals. Yelena recently joined the Society of Animal Artists and was immediately accepted as a signature member. \nYelena’s works were selected for and won awards in juried group exhibitions\, including Oil Painters of America (OPA)\, Society of Animal Artists (SAA)\, and National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society (NOAPS) national shows. She was a finalist in the 15th ARC Salon and a semi-finalist in the 16th ARC Salon. Her list of awards includes the recent Most Original Award of Excellence in OPA 2023 Eastern Regional Exhibition and Outstanding Achievement Animals in AWA 2023 Annual Online Juried Show. \nBritain’s most popular magazine for practicing artists\, Artists and Illustrators\, featured Yelena’s animal portraits in a 6-page article and on the cover of their June 2023 issue. Yelena’s works are represented by galleries and acquired by collectors in the U.S. and abroad. \nThis Workshop at McCampbell Art Studios\, in Centerville TN:  \nFlowers\, as artistic subjects\, offer an infinite variety in form and color\, carrying deep symbolic meanings\, evoking a wide range of emotions\, fostering a connection to nature\, and allowing for artistic freedom in terms of interpretation and style.  \n\nJoin Yelena for an immersive and vibrant 3-day workshop focused on painting flowers from life. This dynamic course will guide you through the essential techniques of alla-prima oil painting\, helping you to master your approach to composition\, color harmonies and values. You will work with a limited primary palette and have an option of expanding this palette to boost your skills creating rich\, cohesive artworks.  Explore your creativity and enhance your artistic abilities in this 3-day intensive. \n\n\nSome experience is recommended\, but beginners and first-time oil painters are welcome and encouraged to join. \n\n\nMaterials: \n\n\n•Surfaces: \n\nMinimum 3 stretched canvases\, canvas boards or panels\, recommended size between 8˝x10˝ and 12˝x16˝. I use Centurion Deluxe Professional Oil Primed Linen Canvas Panels. Small (5”x7” or so) surfaces for color thumbnails; can be scrap canvas pieces\, oil paper\, primed watercolor paper or board.\n\n•Brushes: \n\n\nI use Rosemary and Co. brushes. My favorite are Evergreen Short Flat sizes 4-10; Eclipse Fan (1.5-2”\, optional). \n\n\n•Palette \n\n\n•Medium: linseed oil and container for oil \n\n\n•Small sketch book\, graphite or charcoal pencil \n\n\n•Oil paints: \n\n\nFlowers are colorful subjects indeed. I realized that if I start naming all the pigments that could be used for the workshop\, the list would go on and on. I came up with a limited palette which is fun to work with and allows for a full range of bright chromatic colors. It includes: \n\n\n•Quinacridone Rose \n\n\n•Phthalo Turquoise \n\n\n•Cadmium Yellow Lemon \n\n\n•Transparent Oxide Red \n\n\n•Cobalt Blue \n\n\n•Titanium White \n\n\nAdditional colors I like\, all of these are optional: \n\n\n•Cadmium red light \n\n\n•Chinese Orange (Sennelier) \n\n\n•Viridian \n\n\n•Sap Green \n\n\n•Green Gold (MH) \n\n\n•Radiant Turquoise (Gamblin) \n\n\n•Radiant Green (Gamblin) \n\n\n•Amethyst (MH) – or any nice purple or violet \n\n\n Bring your favorite bright pinks\, oranges\, yellows\, purples — or stay within a limited palette. \n\nPAYMENT: \nYou can make the full payment of $490 on site or pay a $100 deposit to Rachael McCampbell and her Art Studio through Venmo.
