Richard Drayton, an award winning artist who has taught for over 15 years, will guide students through step-by-step techniques that will result in a rich “painting” using subject matter of their own choice with this remarkably versatile medium.
Students will begin by exploring the process of designing a compelling and powerful visual image using classical rules of drawing and composition combined with contemporary digital imaging. Artists of all levels will enjoy a week of discovery and fun.

“Richard took individual time with each student which is something I don’t see often in the workshops I take. Wonderful!!!”
“Richard Drayton was probably one of the best instructors I have run across. He was extremely informative and helpful, not condescending or “full of himself”, spent a lot of time with each individual student, had us working on different things and was a lot of fun! I got a lot out of the workshop and thoroughly enjoyed it. I’d recommend his workshops to anyone.”

Artist Richard Drayton has come full circle. After a long career as a highly successful illustrator and graphic designer, Drayton has returned to his initial dream of working as a fine artist and naturalist. Richard masterfully applies to his work a disciplined eye for detail and a brilliant sense of design and color. He perfected and fine tuned these qualities during his years as a commercial artist and developed many special techniques in a variety of media, which remain uniquely his own.
“Nature’s Bounty” offers a unique look into the expressive worlds of some of the Southwest’s most inspiring artists. Each month, Sedona Arts Center offers a new gallery exhibition featuring incredible local artists.
The Fine Art gallery is open daily from 10am to 5pm.
