DESCRIPTION
Workshop provides you with an opportunity to work on either a current, ongoing project that you have already been engaged in, or begin a new project. You will receive guidance, inspiration and advice as you work. Second, you will be assisted in developing your personal visual voice as an artist. Ample time is provided to work on your own projects in addition to receiving individual feedback and participating in group discussions and critiques. You will learn from both the instruction and the other artists, resulting from the camaraderie of working alongside other artists.
Student furnishes their own supplies, surfaces and projects to work on which can include works in progress. No more than 3-5 paintings per artist/per day. (No oil paint; however, oil paint sticks are okay.) Additionally, student brings their own reference material to work from (photos, sketches, objects, etc.).

[PRAISE FOR DAVID LIMRITE]
Workshop Participant, Hannon Art Barn, Summer 2015:
I learned so much in three short days, especially what doesn’t work in my paintings and for me personally. David is truly kind, most encouraging, caring and supportive. I benefitted from the critiques because they were so positive, with much good advice on making paintings stronger.
Workshop Participant, Hannon Art Barn, Summer 2015
It could have been five days! Was just finding my groove and it was time to pack up.
Workshop Participant, Hannon Art Barn, Summer 2015
[I enjoyed] working in a positive, encouraging environment with fun people in a great place. And of course, I enjoy your very positive critique style.
Workshop Participant, Palm Springs Art Museum, February 2016:
Absolutely challenging and making me work far out of my normal little “box”. David is an ultimate teacher, super encouraging and supportive. Also, incredibly knowledgeable, but easily understood.
Workshop Participant, Palm Springs Art Museum, February 2016:
Fast pace. David kept it interesting. Great demonstrations.
Good positive vibe through the workshop. Had a great time!
