Rocky Landscapes

Rocks make up so much of our Arizona landscape. From the cliffs of the Superstitions to the
River rocks in our washes are a fun subject to paint. This workshop is to practice tips to
paint rocks that are believable and not to be mistaken for potatoes. The instructor will have some
images to work with.
