Jessica Rhaye and The Ramshackle Parade continue to expand her reach as a lyricist and vocalist with songs that are alternately personal and observational. While Rhaye illuminates the darker corners of her world on some tracks, other songs make it clear she’s never lost sight of the possibility for redemption and hope. The result is beautiful and powerful music – music that telegraphs the joy and depth of connection Jessica Rhaye and The Ramshackle Parade have found in working together in equal measure.
Jessica has been writing and performing for more than 20 years and has planted herself firmly on stages at major festivals and venues in Canada, the US and the UK. In addition she has co-written songs with a host of well known songwriters including Ken Tobias, Ron Sexsmith, Steve Poltz, Brent Mason and her bandmates. Her recognition on Youtube has been phenomenal garnering more than 11 million views over the last few years.

A 5-day intensive workshop painting in oil is for artists with at least some painting experience although all levels will be accommodated and will benefit. A wide variety of painting techniques and approaches will be explored. Maggie will demonstrate various ways to “build” your paintings so that the results are complex and reflect and enhance the intent of your narratives. Artists will be encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and to take their work to places of new discovery and levels of excellence.
There will be an emphasis placed on understanding the underlying construction of all sound work. Subject matter will be up to individual artists and working from life and/or photographs will be equally encouraged. Participants are asked to arrive with a variety of possible ideas to explore. Maggie will provide prompts and suggestions for anyone interested in a more exercise-based approach. Participants will have the option to develop one piece or several pieces throughout the week.
Contemporary painters and artists of historical significance and will be discussed and incorporated into all lessons, providing inspiration throughout the week.
Note: If you have never taken Maggie’s Colour Workshop you are encouraged to do so (if possible) the week prior to the Painting Workshop.

This 4-day intensive workshop is an information blast on all aspects of colour and colour mixing as they relate to painting. No matter your medium of choice (oil, acrylic, gouache, water-colour, pastel…), this information is applicable to all. You will learn to mix colours swiftly and accurately; learn to achieve both dynamic and subtle colour in your work; learn to get more out of the colours you already have and to make smart choices when adding to your paint box. This class teaches you how to juggle all colour attributes – hue, value, temperature and chroma.
Most importantly, it explains how to alter only one aspect of a colour without altering other elements. You’ll learn how to reduce, maintain or heighten chroma and learn how to keep hues consistent while they are lightened or darkened through all modelling factors. You’ll learn why an understanding of colour temperature is critical to successful work.
We’ll explore a variety of palettes from the simplest to more complex. There will be many mixing demonstrations, application examples and time for the execution of small projects and exercises to ensure that you fully understand the information. This class is suitable for the beginner to the advanced painter.
