SHASTA WORKSHOPS
BEGINNING, INTERMEDIATE,
ADVANCED and GENIUS WELCOME!
Mount Shasta is located in Northern California's Siskiyou County, midway between the
Pacific Northwest and the San Francisco Bay Area or Reno-Tahoe. It is
an area commonly referred to as the Shasta Cascade Wonderland. The fresh
mountain air will bring a spring to your step and make life seem as if
the weight of the world has been removed from your back!

Morning "Get
Acquainted" Session.

Site
History: The town's
down-home feeling makes it a popular destination for visitors seeking to
get away from the bustle of the big city. Within about nine miles in each
of three directions are other interesting sights and towns. To the south
is Dunsmuir, once a bustling railroad town. To the east is McCloud, where
now only the slightest remnants remain as a reminder that this was once
- not too long ago (late 50's) - a prosperous lumber town with magneto telephones
and wooden sidewalks! To the north, lies Weed, California, originally chosen
as the site of a lumber mill because its wind currents hastened the drying
of milled wood and thus made for quicker profit!

Site Info: Mt. Shasta city is brimming with beautiful surroundings and friendly people.
Getting there is very easy; about four hours north of Sacramento, next to
Interstate 5 and nearby Highways 89 and 97. At one of our painting locations
it's possible to camp, fish and paint all at the same spot! So bring your
license, your fishing rod and your camping gear, or stay in one of Mt. Shasta's
many excellent motels. While the area is beautifully remote, you'll be from
motel to our painting site in less than ten minutes! In spite of the site's
remoteness, the terrain is relatively flat and easily traversed by young
and old alike. |
Site Features: You'll be able to paint everything associated with a mountainous wonderland,
crystal clear, cool, rushing mountain streams, interesting structures,
hills, large rocks and forests, and mountains (including majestic Mount
Shasta) ! You'll breathe truly fresh, clean air and drink the world's
greatest tasting water! Be sure to bring your camera and sketch books!
For the non-painters in the group, there's outdoor recreation such as
golfing, mountain climbing, camping, river rafting, hiking mountain trails,
fishing and sight seeing. Nearby Lake Siskiyou is perfect for swimming,
boating, fishing and windsurfing. Mount Shasta city features nearby fine
dining, including American, Californian, Chinese, French,
Italian, Mexican and Vegetarian Cuisine. |
It Doesn't Get Any
Better Than This!

No Bull: Mt. Shasta is my home-away-from-home! I look forward to the sharing of
our group's combined painting knowledge! We'll do all we can to keep things
simple, understandable, help you meet your painting goals, and make your
attendance enjoyable and memorable! I think I can safely say you'll have
a good time.
