Figurative Illustration Workshop: FIW on the road!
On Friday the 19th I’ll be painting from a live costumed model at the Museumathon event at the Kenosha Public Museum. Part of the event is to celebrate the Fantastic Worlds Exhibit; Masters of Science Fiction and Fantasy Art in which I have a painting on display.
The event is free! I hope you can make it.
