About Rich's Workshops

Rich Williams has conducted numerous workshops as well as guest demonstrations for his techniques in both watercolor and acrylics. He is available to conduct workshops in either Watercolor or Acrylics.  Please contact Rich at (250) 591-1325

 or by e-mail at rich.williams455atgmail.com for fees and available dates.

Rich believes that to conduct a successful workshop you must have interaction between the instructor and the students.  Not only must you demonstrate how to do a specific technique but you must have interaction between the instructor and the students.  Not only must you demonstrate how to do a specific technique but you must also spend time, one on one with the participants, to insure that they understand what has been demonstrated.  The time spent one on one allows for the clarification of what and how to achieve the desired results.

Rich is available to conduct workshops as well as guest demonstrations.  Workshops of one to four days can be arranged by contacting him through this site.  He is also available to come and do a one or two hour demonstration.
