SAVE THE DATE--1st Annual NPG Retreat

We are thrilled to be hosting this event along with Sandra Pearce as she teaches the art and simplicity of Photoshop painting. The course will cover how you will paint with the air brush, the mixer brush and how it works, the different modes to paint with, you will have the opportunity to use your images, how to extract images for painting composites and the financial aspects of adding an art line. 

You will need to have the following things:  Computer- laptop or tower, tablet (Sandra uses Wacom but any tablet is fine).  Please make sure the drivers are installed on your computer).  If you are using a newer Mac, please bring your connectors.  The lodge will provide extension cords, but if you want to bring your own, you are welcome to. 

Check in- Sunday, August 20th after 4pm.   Meet/greet/dinner, 6pm.

Day at the zoo- Monday, August 21st. Meet at the zoo, 845am. Those at the cabin, we would like to carpool. We do have a cart and cooler that we will be taking for drink/snacks, etc. It's going to be hot, so be sure to dress and be prepared. Cooling bands, lots of water, good walking shoes, etc. 

Workshop- Tuesday 22nd/Wednesday 23rd at the Lodge (Cottonwood Room), Mahoney State Park.

Class will begin at 9am and end approximately at 5pm.  Sandra is extremely flexible and willing to help anyone or the group as a whole. We can stay in the classroom or go back to the cabin and continue to work if needed. 

We would love to do a little adventuring together as a group too, maybe a trip to lookout tower at sunset or anyplace else! 

Check out-Thursday morning (by 11am).

*A state park sticker is required, please be sure to get this prior to entering.*

Food/drinks can be brought into the classroom. The cabin does have the basics as well.  Please feel free to bring any snacks, drinks that you would like.  The majority of meals are covered.  There will be 1-2 meals on your own, where we can decide if we want to order in or go into Ashland or nearby for lunch. 

We are extremely fortunate to have Sandra come to Nebraska (her first visit here). We have a smaller, intimate group, so please take advantage of this fabulous learning opportunity!
