Paint Fall in an idyllic setting and learn the secrets of essential oil mediums and hand prepared canvas and panels to create luminous landscapes.

Learn techniques from under-painting to finished painting.  Old World recipes of drying oils and traditional grounds will be explained along with color theory and brush technique.

If you are new to oils or just need a refresher, join John Mac Kah for three days of paintings on Brasstown Creek and the Historic Bidstrup Acres. Work at your own pace along side of John in an educational non-competitive atmosphere.
