Join Dan Marshall, award winning watercolor artist and sought after instructor and mentor for this 3-day workshop (the afternoon of Oct. 10 – the morning of Oct. 13) in picturesque northern New Jersey at Tamerlaine Farm Sanctuary. Dan is a master painter of farms and landscapes and there will be no shortages of beautiful vistas, gorgeous barns and out buildings. An incredible array of rescued farm animals are also available for students to paint including cows, goats, sheep, donkeys, pigs and so much more. These are magical farm animals who have found a loving and compassionate home at this sanctuary.
We will arrive at Tamerlaine on Thursday, October 10 mid morning to settle in and will spend the afternoon painting. Each day will be spent painting from 9am-5pm with a break for lunch on the farm. Dan typically does at least two demos per day with one in the morning and one in the afternoon. We will paint Sunday morning and break at noon to pack up and head home.

More about Dan:
An avid plein air painter, he is inspired by and paints a great deal of his work on location. This has helped him develop a confident style with an immediacy and freshness infused into each painting.
Dan’s work is greatly influenced by living in the American West. He is inspired by the fading scenes of rustic farms and working ranches, framed in by the beautiful landscapes Colorado and New Mexico have to offer. Growing up on the East Coast and having previously lived in California, his work also retains a strong connection to coastal and nautical life. Regardless of the subject, his unique view of the Americana aesthetic is unmistakable.
An award winning professional artist and leading name in the tattoo industry since 1995, Dan redirected the majority of his creative energy to fine art painting in watercolor since 2013. He’s been featured in Watercolor Artist Magazine, Southwest Art Magazine, American Art Collector and Plein Air Magazine. He is also a regular contributor, writing articles about plein air painting, experiences and watercolor instruction.
Daniel is represented by the Huse Skelly Gallery in Balboa Island, CA and Scarlowe’s Gallery in Casper, WY. He also has had an exhibition of his work in Casper’s Nicolaysan Art Museum.
Daniel Marshall is currently based in Denver, Colorado. He can often be found plein air painting from the farms of the plains, to the ranches of the foothills and the peaks of the Rockies.
