A painting seminar is a gathering of artists either from the private sector, a Tole & Decorative Painting Studio, decorative painting group, or SDP Chapter who wishes to hold a painting session with Roxanne for a period of 2 or 2-1/2 days. And depending upon the subject matter, class size can range from 10 students to as many as 30.

From Roxanne's perspective, a painting seminar is a time where you, the artist and student, gets to experience an indepth painting session. With Roxanne's relaxed and casual manner, she gets to show you her version of decorative painting, and considers it her distinct pleasure to share it with you.

Like anything, decorative painting applications have no magic attached, and when you know what makes something "tick" it makes it becomes easy to understand. With the right tools and teaching, anyone can master the techniques with their paintbrush! Believe it!!!

Depending upon the needs of your group, Roxanne custom tailors the painting seminar to fit those needs and desires of your group. Most all designs are at an intermediate to intermediate/advanced level, so there leaves much to choose from to stretch your group and expand their painting potential.

Falling somewhere in the middle of fine art and tole painting, Roxanne takes her own defined style of decorative painting, and instructs the students to a more fluid, less contrived way of painting. It is her main goal to teach students to cultivate their own styles and influences into the designs with which they will work. Imagine learning the artform of Baltimore Screen Painting. But that's just the beginning . . .

TRAVEL expenses are the financial responsibility of the venue or host. These travel arrangements will be made by Roxanne (either air, rail, or car) and an itinerary will be forwarded to the venue. These charges will be billed prior to the seminar, or in the closing bill of the seminar, based on the length of time between the booking and the seminar..

LODGING arrangements should be made by the host or venuet, in an indoor entering hotel comparable to Holiday Inn, Mariott, or Ramada. This hotel room should be pet-free, non-smoking.

TRANSPORTATION should be provided by the venue or host from the time of Roxanne's arrival until the departure at the close of her stay. It should also be provided to get her to the airport or train station on the day of departure.

DRIVING Should Roxanne drive to the venue, the current per diem IRS per/mileage fee will be incurred for a round trip, originating from Baltimore, Maryland to the venue, and back to Baltimore.

While these custom-tailored seminars are full of technique and learning, it is also important to have some fun while you're working. Roxanne says,

"To create a learning environment that is comfortable and relaxed, places the student in their comfort zone. When that "zone" of comfort and fun are a dynamic in the cirriculum, the student can then feel a freedom to experiment and grow, to stretch and maximize their potential."

There are lots of things we can do to make for an interesting seminar. Roxanne's signature "filbert" roses, or perhaps your group would like to try something on wood, slate, tin, or canvas? Any of the projects published in her book, pattern packets, or magazine articles are projects that are suitable for seminar sessions. It is important to tailor the seminar to YOUR needs and desires.
