A photograph of several very patient artists gathered together within an art studio to listen to the instructor, clad in a green apron, who is leaning around an easel to point at a small sample painting with their right hand.

Within the painting room at Northern State University, Klaire Lockheart instructs several art students whilst encircled by numerous paintings-in-progress perched on wooden easels.

Flanked by two attentive artists, painting educator Klaire Lockheart speaks while giving an art demonstration regarding the partially finished oil sketch behind her and using the painting palette before her.

I taught an oil painting workshop at the Arts Education Institute. It’s okay for you to be jealous if you weren’t able to attend.

In this mediocre selfie, a nerdy art patron with a red bandana peeks into the lower left corner of a white walled art gallery filled with nice artwork, as a more handsome nerd peeks into the frame in the middle ground.

I was happy to teach an oil painting workshop to several brave students at the Arts Education Institute, and as a bonus I got to see the current Midwest Nice Art exhibition!

An artist uses her gloved right hand to squeeze a bit of cadmium red paint from a metal tube onto a painting palette in this photograph taken within a painting studio and reveals only part of the artist attached to the hand.

If you’re an art teacher and need to earn grad credit to renew your teaching license, you should come paint with me at Northern State University in Aberdeen, South Dakota July 16-17, 2025.

This photograph depicts art educator Klaire Lockheart a little out of focus because the emphasis is placed on her right hand as she grabs a smidge of yellow ochre with a wide metal palette knife off a glass painting palette

A photograph focuses on an artist’s fragile human hand protected by a vinyl glove as she squeezes a blob of viridian green onto a glass painting palette adjacent to a bit of cadmium yellow.
