Since 2011, Aloria Weaver and I have been teaching painting seminars in far-flung locations around the world. There have been more drawings and paintings generated in these classroom settings than can be truly factored. We have had the pleasure of sharing the our continuing research and study of painting and painting mediums through our unique style of collaborative teaching, with hundreds of passionate international artists as our student base. We have also had the pleasure of working alongside a number of brilliant art instructors, sharing our dedication to the craft and to our students.

Our courses range from traditional oil and egg tempera painting techniques to creative geometry as seen in ancient sacred architecture the world over. Regardless of the subject, we bring a unique synthesis of symbolism and practical skills into every class.

The Testimonials and Student Works pages on the Luminous Flux Gallery website give further insight into the classroom experience.

A wide variety of approaches to painting are required to teach a wide variety of painting courses. Here are a few of the demonstration paintings that have some from the classroom. Many of the demo paintings are collaborations with Aloria Weaver.

There is always a unique angle available in painting, a stone as yet left unturned. Escaping predictability is essential to continued growth. Novel color combinations and different approaches help to kickstart the discovery process and help bring full presence back into the work. This series intends to capture fleeting atmospheric conditions, from both inner and outer vistas.

“You will never love art well, till you love what she mirrors better.”

– John Ruskin

Engaging in the diligent practice of observation is a refining aspect of Art, as much as it is a skill to be applied. The nature of observation is constantly in flux; from the entire scope of sight, down into microscopic details. We cannot simultaneously see everything in focus at once, and a painting can be a deeply accurate reflection of our true mode of perception.

Engaging with the eyes and working through the hands to awaken the heart to an order of beauty in which the artwork and the artist are blessed to partake.
