By Staff | Jan 20, 2023

Mian Situ is a Master Member of Oil Painters of America and Sig- nature Member of California Art Club.

Mian Situ, master figurative painter, is coming to Maui to offer a special four-day workshop from March 27-30, 2023.

This is an opportunity to be one of 12 participants in a Maui Arts League workshop with an artist of Mian’s stature.

The event is part of Maui Arts League’s commitment to foster educational art programs.

Situ is one of America’s most acclaimed artists of our time. While living in China, he earned a Master of Fine Arts Degrees from the Guangzhou Institute of Fine Arts and now resides in California.

Students from around the globe are welcome to join the group. If you are coming to Maui to attend this workshop, it is advisable to make hotel and car reservations soon. The weather in March on Maui is perfect.

The daily workshop schedule is 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This workshop is intended for artists at the intermediate or advanced skill level.

Mian will provide presentational and one-on-one instruction with the goal of providing individual advice to advance each student’s painting skills.

Plan to spend time learning technical skills of how to create landscape paintings with figurative people being the focal point of the painting.

To gain the most from the workshop, students are asked to bring ample photographs of people in outdoor settings. They should be scenes that represent what you will create during the workshop.

Having your own photographs of your surroundings as your basis for your painting will allow Mian to give you the best one-on-one guidance.
