Still Life by Numael Pulido
It is a teaching applicable to all levels, - for beginners or for advanced painters who are looking for a more classical approach.
Still Life by Numael Pulido
Each student will start a start a still life with the same instruction and advance according to his/her own level of experience.

Some time will be devoted to advice for doing more effective set-ups for both still life and portrait painting.

Accommodations are abundant in the area - and New England’s oldest, beautiful inn is right in town.
Good lunches, a five minute walk to town center.
And Peterborough, a cultured and elegant town, 7 miles down the road from Hancock for relaxed evenings.

Still Life (pastel) by Shirley Pulido
Study Form, Composition, Light, using the limited palette: ideal for artists wishing to enhance their knowledge of master painting technique and classical composition.

This is a real opportunity to study with two masters of classical realism. And they are only accepting 11 people.
I recommend The Hancock Inn (one of the oldest inns in the country) as a delightful place to stay. It is within walking distance of the Pulido Studios, dining, library, grocery store....and a large picturesque pond.
"The Classical Realism Workshop" is a rare opportunity - so grab it if you can. I promise, you won't be disappointed.
Some Earlier Workshops:
I stopped by the last workshop toward the end and snapped a quick picture of the students busy working. This studio is small - but very comfy. The Pulidos have painted a mural on the far wall that gives their space a delightful "airy" (and classical) atmosphere.
I never met anyone who wanted to paint that was totally lacking the talent. But without solid instruction it is nearly impossible to get to a professional level.
For a lucky few, Numael and Shirley Pulido took their workshop participants through a step-by-step classical oil still life painting. Having experienced this procedure first-hand, the student can now return home and bring this traditional knowlege to all of their future works.
As I expected, they all "got it" - and the resulting work is most impressive. It is really exciting for me to see what happens when "Talent Finally Meets a Teacher."
Visiting the Pulido Studio Workshop made my day!
