Tim, good point. Incidently, I have reverted back to simple Gamsol. I spent a week at Incaminati with Nelson Shanks and he advocates wiping out lights with a OMS-soaked rag. I now use a little Artguard (W&N) as a barrier cream and hope for the best. Incidentally, Incaminati has changed my life as a painter.

Chris, do you have contact information for them? I wasn't aware they had already started offering classes. I sent an e-mail via a contact on Nelson Shanks' website and I haven't heard anything back.

Thanks!

Chris,

How about giving us some insight regarding your week at Incaminati. (Maybe another thread)

The application (selection) process, how many students in your class, did you spend much time with N. S.? Do they now have the dormitories? What did your day consist of? What else ...?

Incaminati

Here's a phone number for them: 215-592-7910. I hope to take a workshop there in 2004.

Mike and others, I apologize for not answering sooner. By way of explanation, I have a 1998 iMac that hates the internet. I have not been able to log on since my earlier post. I am currently logged in on my mother-in-law's computer

Chris, this was wonderful to read, and thank you so much for posting this review. You've answered some of the questions I've had about Shanks' work and you are a good writer, to boot. I would love to see one of your grisalles from the class.

Best regards,
Linda
