Tom Lynch Online Art Workshop: Dramatic Lighting for Still Life, June 18-19, 2025

Two evenings.  Two paintings.  One price!  In this new, unique workshop by Tom Lynch, you will complete 2 different still life paintings using his watercolor secrets and techniques. Tom takes you on a step-by-step process to create a finished painting each evening. On the 1st evening, you’ll learn about design, composition, color, light, etc. to create and complete a “Golden Glow Still Life” painting. On the 2nd evening, you’ll learn about values, shadow, focal point, and more, to create and finish a “Dramatic Shadows Still Life” painting. Tom provides a comprehensive amount of information for building strong foundations which can be applied to all your future paintings. Prior to the workshop, students will receive the photo reference, preliminary sketch, lesson guides, video tips and techniques, articles to read, bonus videos to watch, and color lesson guides to print out. You can follow the same scene that Tom demonstrates, one of the other options he will send, or work from your own composition. Tom’s 3 camera set up makes for great viewing of his demos and close-ups, and you can also benefit by listening as he helps each of the other students. The demonstrations will be recorded and available to replay, pause, rewind, fast-forward and screenshot, at your own pace and convenience, for 4 WEEKS following the workshop.  As a bonus, Tom will continue to assist you by email and/or text for 4 WEEKS, answering your questions, reviewing your work, and offering suggestions for your paintings.  This class is for artists having basic watercolor skills, and up.
