The answer is a resounding ‘Yes.’ Albala is not only a gifted artist and instructor, but has an ability to break down concepts into concise, cogent language as very few artists can do.” – Ray Munger, artist Mitchell Albala Bio: Mitchell Albala is an award-winning landscape painter, workshop instructor, and author.
