Dominik Modlinski is a multiple award-winning artist best known for his colorful and vibrant landscape paintings. He immigrated to Canada from Poland at the age of 16, at which point he studied painting and drawing at the Ontario College of Art. Later, he went on to study at the Algoma School of Landscape Arts.
He enjoys seeking out beautiful and hard to reach places for his paintings and bringing them to life with each brushstroke.
Mat-Su College (MSC) Fine Art Professor Michelle Mishaan has worked hard to bring him to campus for students and community members to learn from. She says, “Everyone dreams of painting incredible mountains, capturing their majesty and beauty on canvas. Now, here’s your opportunity to learn from the best! Join Dominik Modlinski’s painting workshop and discover the techniques and skills needed to create breathtaking landscapes that reflect the awe-inspiring power of nature.”
There will be three opportunities to meet Modlinski: An Artist Talk, a Gallery Opening of his work, and a 2-Day Workshop.
The workshop will be held on February 6th (9am-4pm) and 7th (9am-1pm). Professor Mishaan says, “Participants will explore dynamic landscape painting techniques while learning about color theory, composition, and creative expression. This workshop is perfect for artists of all skill levels, providing a rare opportunity to work alongside a master in the field.”
The workshop will cost $175 for community members and $87.50 for MSC Students. Register at http://tinyurl.com/DominikWorkshop.
