Fredrick Guess Studio
 
 

I’ve decided to try a new format for the workshop this August. It’ll be a more informal, smaller class, including a weekend, to accommodate those who want to take just a few days. You can choose which days you’d like to attend within the dates I’ve selected below. Besides instructing, I’ll be painting alongside everyone when I am not needed, giving the added benefit of seeing some techniques I use in my own work. I look forward to seeing you there!

The dates I have chosen are:
August 2nd – 13th
Sincerely,
Freddie
 

Guess uses his gifts and knowledge to draw the muse out of every participant. He begins with lessons on the blending of the color wheel and the qualities imbued in each hue, shade, tint and tone, including how colors affect each other. He then leads the workshop participants into understanding how to achieve effective light and shadow on canvas, and how to achieve good composition in subject matter. From there, Guess helps each individual to develop his or her own style and project their personality into their work.

Doors open at 9:00 a.m. and Guess will be there until about 4:00 p.m. Guess will guide participants through all aspects of introductory painting including setting up a color wheel and palette, composing an image for depth and balance, capturing the desired ambience and so much more.

For more information, please contact us at 504.581.4596 or info@FredrickGuessStudio.com and we will be happy to work with you.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Fredrick Guess' generosity is exemplified in his donations to charities and non-profits. On average, his donated paintings generate over $25,000 annually for organizations ranging from PBS and the American Cancer Society to Save Our Cemeteries and Lazarus House, to name a few. In 2006, Guess called together several friends to do a fundraiser for the Musicians' Village being built by Habitat for Humanity. That event alone raised around $27,000.
