Workshops with Robert Noreika
Robert Noreika shares his signature “fluid” painting method. Students are invited to work in either watercolor or acrylic, and will experience Robert’s relaxed teaching approach, which has been enjoyed by many students and professional artists through the years. Robert has an incredible ability to spontaneously see the big picture and transfer it onto paper by assessing different values and colors to create a painting, not an illustration. Students will learn to take the essence of the subject and transform it into a pleasing painting, while achieving strong, cohesive value patterns with interesting shapes.. Students of all levels, including beginners, will enjoy working with Robert in a structured and accommodating, yet humorous and fun atmosphere.

You're sure to find a playfulness about his work but don't let that fool you, his knowledge and proficiency is rooted in a highly developed and keen sense of color and design mastery. A signature style that has won him numerous awards, and loved by so many of his fond collectors. colleagues and beloved students.
Bob will shares his signature “fluid” painting method in this 2 day workshop starting with a demo the first morning so students can truly see the full painting process. Including the way he quickly composes a thumbnail sketch as his guide, determines shape and shadow patterns and adds finishing details that bring a fresh and energetic feel to his work.
Bob will demonstrate in acrylics to show the versatility acrylics have to offer from working thin on paper like watercolors to thin applications of paint like oils. Students can work in watercolors, acrylics or oils. This workshop focus less about the materials and more on building the student's confidence through understanding basic and foundational design, color harmony and strong confident brushwork.

Watching Bob paint a piece from start to finish was so helpful for me. Often times I would abandon a piece because I just didn't know how to finish it. Bob clearly explained the importance of creating interesting shapes and how to tie shapes together - that was a light bulb moment for me!"
