Darryl Urig Workshop

Nationally-acclaimed oil painter Daryl Urig will provide a unique presentation of rich instruction on the benefits of having an actionable plan and proven step-by-step procedure for capturing great on-location paintings. Workshop will be held at the Mt. Carmel, Utah Maynard Dixon property, in the beautiful Red Rock country near the Eastern side of Zion National Park.

From creating dynamic compositions, mixing rich colors, and capturing fleeting light and shadow with lively paint, many factors come into play when painting outdoors.  All mediums are welcome, but demonstrations will be in oil paint.

For those rugged outdoorsmen/women, you may pitch a tent on the Dixon property.  Bathroom and shower facilities available at no charge. Email: Contact@DarylUrig.com
