A two-day indoor oil painting workshop with Stephen Wysocki
Join award-winning painter Stephen Wysocki for two days of oil painting one of Wisconsin’s most iconic subjects: the barn. Stephen is known for his vivid color and his strong record on the plein air competition circuit. His paintings center on ordinary scenes and structures, finding hard-edge contrasts in light and shadow and showing everyday places in a new way.
In this workshop, you’ll learn how Stephen uses color to set atmosphere and mood. He believes color alone can carry the feeling of a painting. He plays warm tones against cool ones, and he keeps his color clean while leaving out unnecessary detail. Working from reference images in the warmth of the studio, you’ll explore simplified shapes, bold value contrast, and expressive color to create barnscapes full of character.
This workshop is designed for intermediate painters who are comfortable with the basics of oil painting and ready to push their use of color. Class is limited to 10 participants, so each painter gets individual attention.
Dates: December 5-6, 2026, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Students bring their own materials. A materials list will be provided upon registration.
