    Emphasis will be in learning to simplify and organize shapes and color values outdoors. Demonstrations, supplemented with visual aids, will help to clarify the key elements discussed. From a simple statement to a finished painting will be our goal.

    Class will begin with a short lecture and samples of my approach along with some of my completed field studies. From there we will go directly on location and begin painting. We will paint on location at all times. Demonstrations will be part of the program, but probably not on a daily basis.
    What is important to me, as a teacher, is to share whatever knowledge I have with my students. I have no secrets about the way I paint, my philosophy, or my approach. I want to give each student all I can through personal attention, direction, and group discussions. There are no shortcuts in reaching our goals; just hard work and determination.
    John Budicin was born in Rovigno, Italy. He was 12 years old when his family settled in Southern California. After working as a commercial artist for 19 years, John finally decided to make his true passion, art, his lifetime profession. Working primarily on location, he finds his inspirations directly from life.
    With many awards and honors, John’s work has been in museum exhibitions and featured in many art magazines, such as, Cowboys and Indians, Art of the West, Southwest Art, Pasadena Magazine, California Art Club Newsletter, and Art Business News. Several of his paintings were selected and published in 200 Great Painting Ideas for Artist, and have been reproduced in several other art books.
