Our presenter
Doug Levitt is an artist specializing in Alla Prima painting techniques. His main theme has been historical Native/Cowboy themes but he also paints contemporary portraits, landscapes, still life, and anything else that catches his eye. His other passion is teaching. ‘It’s a sacred thing to be asked to help someone along in their passion and the need to take it seriously is crucial’, he says. Doug feels artists have a responsibility to be cultural ambassadors in our society and teaching others to grow in their creativity is a main avenue to accomplish that goal for him.
