How far can you go in days?
This workshop will change the way you see/think/paint.

Progress to more powerful paintings. So much can be accomplished through sequential learning over consecutive days. Color communicates! Make it work for you and say "good-bye" to muddy colors. Bring drama to your work. Dare to try unfamiliar ways to think about and work with color, including Caroline Jasper's way of painting on red canvas (other colors too). Create exciting light and shadow effects. Awaken the emotive psychological power of color in your work. Manipulate perspective and lighting for dynamic depth. Following the first day's concentration on color, each day brings another new focus and new paintings. Along with a head full of color theory master concepts, take home valuable studies and inspired new paintings of your own.

Bring favorite photo references.
(Choose subject/composition appropriate to your drawing confidence.)

Read Reviews from workshop students

Kaaren McNulty:
"Your workshop was the BEST I have ever taken. To teach art, it is not enough to be a good artist. Having taken a couple of workshops from artists whom I admired as artists and thought I would learn from, I know from whence I speak. Being a good (or great) teacher is the real key. And you, my dear, are a great teacher. Your education background made a huge difference in the quality of the workshop:
1. You are obviously at ease in the process of and enjoyment of teaching.
2. It is apparent that you have spent a lot of time and effort in the visual aids you utilized. Know that it made a difference.
3. You were there every morning early and every morning you were prepared. That, too, makes a difference.
4. During class you spent more time with each of us individually than I have ever experienced in a workshop. And that was quality time, too.
5. You were there for us who came early and/or stayed late. No hesitancy on your part to help, even when you were "off the clock"
6. As Jack, in our workshop stated, "the first 20 pages of your book was an epiphany" after many years of trying to understand color theory. I agree. It all came together for me too. Thank you Caroline. You have inspired me."

Eva Kon:
"Chinese saying 'When the student is ready the teacher will appear'. Your teaching is a revelation and an unforgettable experience."

Anne Torda: "I truly enjoyed meeting you and taking your class. I learned a great deal from you as you are an excellent teacher."

Cindy Fanning: "It was so much fun and Caroline was an awesome instructor. Drawing on her experience as a high school art teacher, she was able to deal with the unruly mid-aged women in the class."
