Sarah Lamb’s still life workshop

Sarah Lamb’s workshop was phenomenal. It’s amazing how much one can learn in just three days! Sarah guided our workshop students through an intense three-day still life painting workshop covering concepts such as the color poster, block-in, composition and color mixing with such clarity. Not only were the structured demos packed with generous information, but the critiques were invaluable.

Despite the snowstorm last Wednesday, the third and final day of the workshop, Sarah trekked through the slush along with a handful of students to finish their paintings. Here are some images from the workshop.

Due to the intensity of the workshop, combined with the snowstorm, we weren’t able to take shots of many other beautiful paintings. Join us next time (as Sarah Lamb will be back at Janus sooner than you think) and stay tuned for an announcement for another stint this summer! Thanks for a great workshop, everyone.

Janus Skylights
As long as our awesome models make the trek uptown and we shovel the snow off our skylights every 5 minute break, we continue plowing (pun intended) on through this blizzard. Stay warm!
