Location Painting Workshop Mt. Shasta!
2008 Discover the secrets of painting

In this three-day weekend workshop, you will be amazed at the facts
and breakthroughs you will experience in your art.

Come join Stefan Baumann, the host of the PBS series THE GRANDVIEW, for a weekend of painting in beautiful Mt. Shasta at The Grand View Ranch.  Discover the secrets of painting hidden lakes, vast meadows, grand trees, sunsets, and the famous Mt. Shasta summit herself.  In the evening, we always conclude by critiquing all the paintings that were done that day which is a great learning experience.  You will learn Baumann’s philosophies on painting, composition, color, value, and many helpful hints about plein air painting.  Stefan will also discuss "The Power To Create" which entails some of his views on art and his experiences behind the scenes of his popular television series.  He is committed to making sure that all attendees will leave with valuable and useful insights.
With Stefan Baumann Workshops, you hold in your hands the first steps of learning to create measurable and lasting change in your art.  His workshops contain a step-by-step process that will help you identify how to paint outdoors and how to break through barriers to take action and transform your painting.  Baumann's workshops are delivered with incredible passion, power, and playfulness.  The process becomes not only moving but also enjoyable.
In Baumann’s workshops, he will personally coach you as you begin to implement the proven strategies and tools for achieving the results you want and deserve, faster than you may have ever imagined possible!
