Workshop with Gene Propkov

 On Sept 19 & 20 The FCA hosted a workshop with Gene Propkov from Edmonton

He was very organized and provided all the media we needed for the workshop.  I prefer a photo and he provided one to each participant plus a copy of the painted artwork so members could see how he created the flat  painting, an easier way for some to use.  Gene did a demo the project in stages so students had a fresh memory of painting in the parts.  Everyones painting was amazing. It was a great subject and easy for all to follow along.   Here is the instructor working on the demo.
