The Spirit of Art | A Four-Day Acrylic Painting Mentorship Retreat with Autumn Skye
*Please note this is for Autumn Skye Alumni only, must have completed one previous workshop with Autumn Skye (Heart of Art, Soul Portraits, Vienna Academy, Italy Seminar, Magic Realism, etc)
A deeper dive into acrylic painting technique, empowered inspiration, composition, theory, & process with the attentive support of Autumn Skye. Over four days of studio time, students are invited into a deeper exploration of the creative painting process. Working from a blank canvas of your choice, you will be guided and empowered to get more ambitious with your composition or subject matter, challenge yourself, and grow as an artist with the mentorship of Autumn Skye.
Daily demonstrations will be tailored for the unique students and group to help liberate creative blocks and process challenges. Autumn Skye will work simultaneously on a new painting, demonstrating the various stages of a painting’s creation, and also offer attentive one-on-one support and feedback throughout the painting process.
Group or private critique sessions will also be facilitated for any students who wish to bring (up to three) existing complete or in-progress paintings for empowering, constructive, honest, and compassionate discourse.
Hosted at Skyelight Studio at Heartwood, north of Powell River in qathet regional district. During free time students are welcome to relax, walk the beautiful forest and gardens, soak in the wood-fired hot tub, or keep painting!
Prices include paints only. All other supplies (brushes, canvas, and palette) will be available for purchase onsite for those who choose to not bring their own or do not have tools from a previous workshop.

This includes the workshop on May 8th - 11th if you wish to take these two courses back to back with a day of recuperation between.
