Working with professional oil paints and quality materials, you’ll receive personalized guidance from artist and educator Julio Panisello-Huguet. Small groups allow individual attention and feedback suited to each participant’s experience and interests.
Subjects and approaches vary between sessions. Work may draw on photographic references, still life arrangements, or the surrounding environment, offering opportunities to explore different aspects of painting.

I founded Roofless Painters in Los Angeles in 2017, bringing together my work as a painter and art educator. I studied Fine Arts with a specialization in painting and pedagogy at the University of Barcelona, and received the Grand Prize and Audience Choice Award at the Los Angeles Plein Air Festival.
Painting gives me a way to linger with the world: the light beneath a tree, the particular shape of an ordinary object, a color that changes as we look. Whether we’re painting in Griffith Park, a historic courtyard, or a room filled with curious objects, I encourage people to give their attention to what is before them. Observation grows through practice. Curiosity is a good place to begin.
Teaching is a deeply rewarding part of my practice. I enjoy helping beginners find confidence in their decisions and supporting experienced painters as they explore familiar materials with fresh attention. My sessions are small, allowing individual guidance, conversation, and room for each person’s way of seeing.
Through Roofless Painters, I’ve taught hundreds of students in public workshops, private sessions, and community programs. We provide the materials and take care of the setup, creating a welcoming space where people can settle into painting.
At the heart of these sessions is a shared pleasure: spending time with a place, looking closely, and discovering what becomes visible when we stay a little longer.
