This class will focus on making still-life studies on smaller sized panels. The main focus will be on creating the illusion that an object on a flat surface is round. There will be several demos provided on various subjects including: drawing, values, preparing the surface, paint and brush choices, subject choices, background selection, how to start, and straightforward color mixing.

Clinton T. Hobart holds a BFA from the School Of Visual Arts in NYC. During his junior year there he participated in a Walt Disney Feature Animation Internship which eventually led to him becoming a Licensed Disney Fine Artist creating oil paintings for the galleries in the theme parks. After graduating from art school Clinton was the summer workshop assistant to artist Daniel Greene for seven summers.
Clinton paints still-lifes, portraits, figurative paintings, and ocean waves. He has been featured on NBC News, FOX News, The CW, ABC News, and American Artist magazine. He appeared on CBS News with Scott Pelle after a Chinese company sold forged copies of his paintings online. Afterward, the Huffington Post mentioned the story in an article stating that Clinton was part of a “sting operation.” 
Clinton has been teaching workshops and classes at Scottsdale Artists' School in Arizona since 2001 and painting workshops all over the world.
