Now is the time to enjoy the warmth and sunshine and book your most memorable art workshop vacation! Come and draw your heart out in Mexico with artist Robert Masla December 6th to the 13th. Join in a playful, nurturing and supportive environment where exploration is encouraged and where there are no mistakes. Come and play in this fun and exhilarating workshop, using non-traditional and innovative approaches, experimentation and "art games" as well as some new approaches to traditional drawing and painting techniques.
Experiencing access to our calm center of meditative awareness as well as releasing the passion of the "inner wild person". We will take advantage of the out doors and inspirational locals the Boca offers, as well as do some supportive work in the studio. Masla will offer technical instruction and demonstrations as well as provide you the freedom (encouragement), and methods to pursue (and discover) your own vision and process. We will also do exercises to access the flow of our creative energy and gain insight into the art of seeing. The workshop will keep you so engaged in the creative process that fears, apprehensions and “inner critiques” are quieted and fall to the background.
This workshop is suitable for all levels of artists from the absolute beginner, who will gain the necessary skills and techniques to actively pursue drawing/painting on their own, to the seasoned artist, wishing to renew and fine tune their rendering skills and infuse their work with fresh inspiration. Celebrating Creativity will be a week filled with passion and fun as we develop the Art of Seeing and learn to translate our vision into 2 dimensions.
Casa de los Artistas is designed in "Hacienda Style" architecture, built with the jungle and mountains behind it and the river and ocean at the front door. The Large Kitchen, Dining and Living area opens with glass doors to the large veranda and the general "feel" is a unity and flow of the outside and inside. Each bedroom has its own private bath and a view of the ocean from the bed! On the bottom floor, just a few stairs from the beach, is a large garden patio with table and chairs and numerous lounge chairs for sun bathing and relaxing. The open air studio on the top floor is approximately 1,500 sq. ft. with panoramic vistas of the Boca village, river and bay. Equipped with a full bath, a "washing station", easels, tables and chairs, along with all manner of drawing materials and papers, watercolors, acrylics, pastels, brushes, glue guns and other assorted materials, unless specified for a particular workshop, the only thing a participant needs to bring is their desire for creativity.
