Congratulations Pat on what looks like a very successful workshop with Marvin, I am so envious. Your work is a real inspiration as I wait and watch your journey further. Thank you for spilling the beans for us on some pointers about Marvin's workshop too.
Like you said, it will take a while for it all to sink in, can't wait to see what your work will be like when this happens.
Well Done and thanks for sharing.

Pat - there are not adjectives left to express how beautiful that others haven't used. One can see the residue of Marvin's teachings....just gorgeous!

Thanks you so much! I really appreciate the positive feedback - such a confidance builder. I am itching to complete this portrait (ugh, back in my office what a drag!) I can't say enough good things about Marvin Mattelson. He makes painting very logical and easy to understand. Now it is a matter of applying the lessons learned and painting LOTS of paintings before I can come close to having a portfolio which will allow me to go even semi-pro, but I feel I am moving in the right direction!!
And I LOVE painting - aren't we all lucky to have passion for our art, to be able to pursue what we love so much...I feel great gratitude for finding this forum, which I consider THE community to turn to for education, support, growth, etc.

Pat,
I'm still in Vegas..............but I'm relaxing!!!! I will write more about the workshop itself when I return home and regain my sanity, but I wanted to take the time to say it was a
PLEASURE getting to meet you. You are a doll!!

Pat,
Beautiful work. I am a big fan of Marvin's and wish I could afford 2 weeks with him.
I love his pallet and have been using it for a couple of years now. I haven't found a face where it doesn't work. Mixing it is a great way for me to train my eye to see values and color.
I underscore all you say regarding Marvin's workshop.
