Mural Camp in Seattle

Mural Camp in Seattle

 

This is the most comprehensive workshop on murals ever offered.  Don Rockwell, Seattle’s premier mural artist, comes from the “old school” of pictorial sign painting and will share his coveted secrets in Seattle!  His teaching style is hands on and his philosophy is “The only mistake is not trying” If you join us, you will succeed.

This exciting project will cover all the fundamentals of creating a mural from conception to completion.  Each of the three sessions will have a beginning, a middle and an end.  Though, each of the first two will lead to the next and all participants are encouraged to stay on for the duration.

Over the course of three, four day sessions, Rockwell will be leading a fresh crew of “walldogs” in a hands on, outdoor workshop where you can help bring to life “The History and Legends of Gospel, Jazz, Blues and Rock & Roll” in the form of an original work of art, 12 feet high and 80 feet long at Silver Platters Music Store in downtown Seattle!!
