Paint Alongside a Legend — Alfonso "Banshee" Giraldes Comes to Jacksonville
Two days. One table. A completely different painter walks out.
Alfonso "Banshee" Giraldes is one of the most respected miniature painters in the world — and this October, he's setting up shop right here in Fruit Cove for an intimate, hands-on seminar. Whether you've been painting for fifteen years or you've never thinned a coat in your life, you're going to leave seeing minis differently.
Seats are extremely limited. When they're gone, they're gone.

Who It's For
Everyone. No experience necessary, all skill levels welcome. Beginners walk away with a foundation most painters take years to stumble into. Veterans walk away with the fixes they've been chasing for just as long.
Why Alfonso
Ask anyone who's sat at one of his tables: Alfonso isn't just an extraordinary artist — he's one of the most genuine, generous people in the hobby. He teaches because he actually wants you to get better. Most students leave with the same thought: I wish I'd done this sooner.
