Register for 2025 Classes and Workshops
I teach many classes and workshops in various painting media and techniques across the state of Oregon and sometimes Washington.
My methods are taught to students of all experience levels, from beginners who have never touched a paint brush to seasoned artists who hold regular exhibitions. It is never too early and it is never too late.
Check out my list of available classes and workshops below, or feel free to email or call me for more information. I’d love to hear from you.

Making a Painting from a Drawing - Online
You see it. It’s just what you want. But it’s fleeting and you don’t have time, or your paints aren’t with you, or the weather’s too wet and cold. What to do? Could you paint it later from a sketch and fragments of memory? Yes, you can. If you know what’s essential.

“As one of us who cannot lay down a paintbrush for long, it is a blessing that I met Jef Gunn taking his college class in encaustic over 15 years ago. In multiple and varied painting classes, he has freed me from many goblins of uncertainty and so ushered me to the muses of uncertainty, helping me discover they are sometimes indistinguishable. Truly good art is about contemplation—especially if the hand moves quickly. Jef can help you flush out some of those peregrines of spirit.”
