Wednesdays & Saturdays • 10 different subjects from October to December • 4‑workshop series $360 • single workshops $95
Every intermediate workshop is led by studio founder Teresa Grasby. She takes on the subjects artists find most challenging and shares the efficient process she has developed for them, worked in a loose and expressive style — most artists use the series to build one large‑format canvas to take home.
Book a full series or drop into any single workshop — every workshop stands on its own. Shorter series are priced per workshop.
