I will be in town for a few weeks and am itching to teach a class/workshop.  If you are interested in any of the following, please let me know what day of the week and what time of day would work for you:

• Beginning Gyotaku:  Direct method - applying acrylic paint directly on the fish and printing on muslin 
• Hawaiian Gyotaku:  Direct method - applying sumi-e ink to the fish for a quick print on Japanese paper followed by colorizing the print with watercolor pencils.
• Advanced Gyotaku:  This would be an all-day workshop to be taught jointly by Margaret Morley and me.  We recently studied with Japanese Gyotaku Master Mineo Yamamoto and can lead you through the in-direct method.  This is done by preparing the fish, laying silk over it, and applying inks with tampos for a colorful finished product on silk.
• Acrylics: Mixing colors, creating a focus, using values. 
• Golden mediums to be used with acrylics:  I envision each participant bringing one medium for us all to share.  The more participants, the more mediums with which to experiment.
• Mixed media:  Adhering laser copies of your photos to canvas to assist you with your painting composition.
• Painting on glass--wine glasses, vinegar and oil bottles, bowls, framed glass or whatever using special paint that can be fired in your oven to make your creation permanent/dishwasher safe!
