Behind the scenes at Tia Starr Studios
We had a special workshop event painting at the Hulile’e Palace on Jan 7 . This was an advanced workshop that taught “plien air”, the impressionists style of painting on site, focusing on light , composition, and mood. We all had different viewpoints and painted in sketch, darks lights and details. I will soon be creating a fundraiser paint party to paint from a stencil at the palace, as well as a watercolor plien air workshop.
